Emerald Lake
Yoho National Park
On Emerald Lake’s shore, a canoe rests on pebbles. Mountains reflect in the water. Your eyes can travel from the small boat to the distant peaks.
Did you know?
A trail follows the lakeshore.
Look together
Which shapes appear again in the reflections?
An idea to try
Choose one colour for the lake and another for the mountains.
For the adult reading along
A little more to discover
Rocky Mountain peaks and forests surround Emerald Lake. The empty canoe gives a sense of scale beside the broad landscape. This drawing does not identify a launching place or replace park guidance.
