| Moraine Lake, Canadian Rockies. The clouds of an early-morning storm glow with the first light of the day over the glacier-hued waters of Moraine Lake. The magnificent lakes and rugged mountains of Banff National Park have probably added more to the profits of Fuji and Kodak than any other location in the Canadian Rockies. Surrounded by country where the spectacular is ordinary, Moraine Lake stands out as a jewel among jewels here in the Valley of the Ten Peaks. As summer temperatures melt a number of small glaciers in the mountains above this lake, glacier-pulverized rock adds silt to the streams which enter this lake and causes its waters to take on the most brilliant hue of turquoise imaginable.
