Banff National Park, Canada

I was lucky enough to see some wildflowers while visiting Banff National Park during the summer of last year. I got a late start up this trail and regretted it. About 2-3rds of the way up I realized that the sun was going to dip behind the mountains much sooner than I had expected. I double timed it up the ridge and found an expansive area of wildflowers on a hill next to these three peaks.

I thoroughly enjoyed being the only person around (and last on the trail), "frolicking" in a field of flowers. Anyways, I had to make haste and quickly setup to capture the sunstar. Afterwards I spent the next hour or so wandering around appreciating the scenery and the solitude that can be difficult to find in busy National Parks these days.
