Heli-tour of the Rockies and the Columbia Ice Fields

So when Nanc offered to take me (and her daughter) on a heli-tour of the Columbia Ice Fields, how could I say no? It was a monumental day of epic proportions and given that you can only say WOW so many times, we became gobsmacked! I hope you enjoy these shots.

    Very nice, John. Great to have that perspective of the Park.
