Moraine Lake is a gorgeous, turquoise coloured lake near Lake Louise.  It’s part of Banff National park and is glacially fed; the rock flour deposits giving its unique hue.  Fun fact: it  was once featured on the back of the Canadian $20 bill.  I spent a lovely Sunday afternoon there during the Heritage day long weekend, complete with a picnic lunch.  Take a look at these shots I was lucky enough to get.
