Mount Rundle Pink Winter Sunrise, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada

Glow, Canada

Located where the flat plains of the Prairie Provinces give way to the sharply rising Canadian Rockies (such as multi-peaked Mount Rundle to the right), this national park is a true gem of the True North. Just over an hour's drive from the city of Calgary, Banff National Park is a bustling ski resort in winter and a hiker's paradise in summer. For that matter, a nice winter hike at sunrise isn't out of the question, as long as you wear your mittens and keep off the thin ice. Unless, of course, you're a goose, like the pair of adventurers you may have spotted in our photo.
