Description
Golden hour in Canmore Alberta (Canada)! You don't have to do any hiking for this view, just cross one of the bridges in town! This is the Bow River with the rocky Three Sisters peaks off in the distance on the left. The peaks are known individually as Big Sister (Faith), Middle Sister (Charity) and Little Sister (Hope) (R to L) and are the iconic landmarks of Canmore. The peaks were original called the Three Nuns because as Albert Rogers wrote in 1883 "There had been quite a heavy snowstorm in the night, and when we got up in the morning and looked out of the tent I noticed each of the three peaks had a heavy veil of snow on the north side and I said to the boys, 'Look at the Three Nuns.' They were called the Three Nuns for quite a while but later were called the 'Three Sisters,' more Protestant like I suppose." Big Sister is 9,632' Middle Sister is 9,084' and Little Sister is 8,840'.
