Quite a morning.

Yeah, it was pretty gut wrenching to see the north of the town site essentially erased by fire. Though the church I pastored and the townhouse we lived in was spared, it was devastating to see homes of people we knew gone. And the flames torched portions of the Jasper Park Lodge, a veritable jewel for the Park. The grandeur of the mountains was still there, and the sheep and the goats were still very much a part of the scenery. Didn't see any moose or bears when we were there, but they are no doubt nearby, as are the elk.
