I'm sure everyone's seen the news so far, youtube vids, ect. Well, here's a few I snapped!

From Thursday June 20th:

The Elbow river, just east of Bow falls

Image

See the black in front of the bridge? The river's eating it away. That bridge, as I've read on the news, is now downstream.

Image

This is the entrance to the popular quadding area Mclean creek. That road is now gone.

Image

The Ghost river. I'm about 20-30kms North of Banff on the other side of the mountains.

Image

This is the end of the road as there never was a way across the river.... the road is just a little shorter now.

Image

This is a lot steeper then it looks to get back up from the river.

Image

A little further downstream.

Image

Today, June 23rd, overlooking the city center.... the water's gone down quite a bit!

Image

That white Impala in the middle was underwater Friday night.
Image

Mmmmmmm, brown!
Image

And there's more rain tomorrow!
