Canada has lots of waterfalls, weeping walls, countless rivers and lakes. Most of them originated from glaciers. Unfortunately, glaciers become smaller and smaller. If they continue melting at the current pace they will extinguish in the next 100 years. That’s a pity for ski lovers.  In order to get to see very picturesque sceneries one has to be quite sporty as it involves a lot of hiking. Some lakes are 2000 meters in the mountains. So one  has to hike several kilometres up quite steep passes to get there.  Furthermore, the real colour of the lake can be better seen from above. But the views are typically worth every step and sweat.
