Autumn in the Rockies









View of Mt. Rundle from the lawns of Canada Place, or the Administration Grounds as I knew them, in Banff.

  2. Wonderful, wonderful, picture. Is it named after Christina Rundle?

  3. Michele, you and I are kindred spirits where mountains are concerned.

    Rick, nice try, but no brownies. The mountain was named by John Palliser in 1858 after Reverend Robert Rundle, who had visited the Banff area during the 1840s.

    Now I will have to do a post on the Reverand Rundle and how he nearly killed himself mountain climbing.
