My road trip to the Canadian 🇨🇦 #Rocky #Mountains gave me #photos for a (wait for it 🥁) #WhymperWednesday. 😁 Two of these are of #Mount Whymper and the other is Mount #Stanley, the 1st ascent of both was made by #Edward #Whymper 🇬🇧, at age 60(!) in 1901. (Additional info in pics) #photography #nature

Mount Whymper makes a lovely backdrop for this morning photo taken across Vista Lake in Alberta 🇨🇦. You can see the mist rising above the lake where the rising sun has yet to burn it off. With no wind the surface of the water nicely reflects the British Columbia mountain. Another view of Mount Whymper. (Elevation: 2,845-metre / 9,334 ft). 
It can be found in the province of British Columbia, in the Vermilion Pass area of Kootenay National Park. It was named after Edward Whymper (-1840 - 1911), English mountaineer, explorer, illustrator, and author best known for his 1865 first ascent of the Matterhorn.Stanley Peak (Elevation: 3,155-metre / 10,351 ft) is located in the northeastern section of Kootenay National Park, directly across the signage denoting the Continental Divide. It was named by Whymper, who was the first to reach its summit in 1901.

Just got home today from a drive out to the #Canadian #Rocky #Mountains. I am standing on the shore of #Vista #Lake in #Alberta this #morning, but the #reflected peak in the background is #Mount #Whymper (2,845 metres or 9,334 feet) in #British #Columbia. More to follow. #Nature #Photography #mirror
