Awesome Pics. The one of the waterfalls with the mountains in the background especially is awesome IMO. I'm definiteley going to have to consider checking out the forestry trunk again this or next summer.

fishing was unreal, in every river stream and small lake you would get a bite every cast with the fly rod, the nordegg trout ponds were not cold at all, very refreshing, but i did take my mask and flippers down the upper pembina and you freeze in 5 seconds literaly, colder then the freezer trust me, but it was cool seeing the bottom of the pembina and all the whitefish that are accually in it

and I thought that road was way to busy. Certainly not like the 70's when we'd hike back. Twas the time of the Bronco, way before quads.
