Our local weather forecast has changed - snow was in the forecast for tomorrow, but now it looks like we have a mix of sun and cloud most of the time for the coming week. The forecast for Sheep River Provincial Park is still for snow, which is why I decided to do a drive through that park yesterday, 12 October 2019. Another photographer had just posted photos from there and the paved road was bare. I have only ever driven to that area once before, in August 2017, and almost all the scenery was hidden by thick smoke The summer of that year was dreadful, with endless, continuous weeks of smoke drifting in from various forest fires from British Columbia and the States, as well as forest fires in our own province.

My drive was actually through two Provincial Parks next to each other - Sheep River and Bluerock - but as I have no idea which park I was in when I took the various photos, I have included everything together in one album. Later, I will add photos taken during the rest of yesterday's drive, which took me as far south as Chain Lakes. The rest of the day was really just a spur of the moment decision once I reached the town of Turner Valley. Either return home or drive just a little way south, which in fact turned into a long drive south (317 km total for the day).
