This station built in 1910 was the first of a group of 6 mountain stations built by the CPR with the sole purpose to attract tourists to the Canadian Rockies. These stations were small scale simple log construction to portray the rustic wilderness.

Gorgeous capture Clifford, Yves said it all. Alberta tourism should hire you on as their photographer. Your portfolio of images certainly captures the eye and makes you want to be there. Nicely done Clifford.

Stunning capture Clifford. Perfect vanishing point that leads to a mountain. A deep blue sky with its fluffy clouds in various tones of grey-blue. And the stricking red roof to attract tourist. Everyting is there and well balanced. You realy have a talent to capture those sceneries.
