We drove over to Emerald Lake this afternoon. This shot is of Mount Burgess, a 2,599 m (8,527 ft) mountain in Yoho National Park, British Columbia. It is also the location of the Burgess Shale, a depository of 505 million year old Middle Cambrian fossils with many soft parts preserved that has been declared a World Heritage Site. The mountain was also depicted on the Canadian $10 bill for many years.
