Exploring Alberta in 100 Images

Sometimes the greatest adventures are the ones you find in your own backyard. Over the last year I did just that - hiking through the badlands, road tripping the length of Alberta's Rocky Mountains, touring National and Provincial Historic Sites, and revisiting places that I hadn't explored since I was a child. I woke myself up to the fact that I live in an amazing part of the world, and with a bit of creative motivation, I grabbed my camera and set out to prove it.
