Johnston Canyon, Banff, Alberta First hike of the year. The nourishment of the trees and mountain air, and the delicious sense of normalcy to be hiking with friends were intoxicating. We climbed the trail, passing several waterfalls and few other hikers, until we arrived at the top, where we enjoyed spectacular mountain views, mysterious pools called the Ink Pots, and 20 minutes of rest before it started to rain lightly. The downward walk made different muscles ache than the way up, reminded some of us of aging joints, and gave me a blister the size of a silver dollar on my heel - and it was all a complete delight. Location: Johnston Canyon, Banff National Park, Alberta
