Boom Lake Hike
Wednesday, August 27th

Boom Lake is arguably one of the most smoothly - graded trails in Banff National Park and makes for a great uphill cruise.  The gentle steady climb overs 175 meters of elevation gain over 5 kilometers and manages to do it without feeling steep.  After making our way along the forested trail, we were rewarded with the magnificent view of Boom Lake with a dramatic view of Boom Mountain behind it.

We took in the sights and sounds of the lake, while having lunch, and managed to see some dragon flies and fish jumping in the lake.

Nine members were welcomed to pleasant weather and sunny skies, along with a new member Pam.  Welcome to the Club and looking forward to seeing you on future events!
