I had hear about this park a lot of positive information, drove though it several times, planned to visit it, but never did. This place is famous its alpine meadows, wild life and beautiful autumn, and I planned to initiate our relationship in the spring (that really means July in our mountains) or fall. But in January our friends invited us  to spend couple day in the park and we could not resist. After late arriving from Vancouver we spent the rest of the first day hiking around the lakes.<br \/>\nWell, what can I say? It is a lot of snow. But altitude of the lakes is about 1500 meters, so it is not surprise.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nIt was a lot of wet snow several days before our arriving and all trees were completely buried under it.  <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/canadaru.net\/bufo_storage\/Blog_photo\/2013\/Manning_January\/DSC_1355_manning.jpg\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/canadaru.net\/bufo_storage\/Blog_photo\/2013\/Manning_January\/DSC_1367_manning.jpg\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And the frost that followed the snow provided the plenty of huge snow crystals. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/canadaru.net\/bufo_storage\/Blog_photo\/2013\/Manning_January\/DSC_1361_manning.jpg\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"599\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/canadaru.net\/bufo_storage\/Blog_photo\/2013\/Manning_January\/DSC_1362_manning.jpg\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"599\" height=\"900\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The bridge via the narrow part of the lake. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/canadaru.net\/bufo_storage\/Blog_photo\/2013\/Manning_January\/DSC_1370_manning.jpg\" class=\"alignnone\" width=\"900\" height=\"599\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Diving is prohibited.
