At Lake Louise, there was ton of snow, however thanks to its popularity, a lot of skiers and snowshoers already made snow trail up to where I needed to go off trail.

These mountains look as one, but three names are given to each peaks, Sheol Mountain, Haddo Peak, and Mount Aberdeen. The picture mostly shows the first two.

Very nice view of Lake Louise area. The little mountain near is Saddle Mountain. If the weather was nicer I would have done both mountains at once.
