Chateau Lake Louise 

 Everywhere you look, a picture is begging to be taken, just like these two pictures, taken from a slightly different angle.  The top photo is looking west across Lake Louise towards the Victoria Glacier.
There are actually two, the lower and upper glaciers, with the upper being significantly larger.  The top right portion of the picture is the upper glacier, not the sky.
The photo to the left, shows the southern shore of Lake Louise with the mountain rising directly from the shoreline.
"At no extra charge," you can listen to the gentleman play Amazing Grace on his alpine horn.  Actually, he has quite an act going, getting his picture taken and schmoozing the tourists, especially the ones who leave a loonie or twonie in his horn.  (A loonie is a one dollar Canadian coin with an impression of a loon, and a twonie is a two dollar coin.)
