Calgary | Mohkínstsis | Wenchi Ispase | Otôskwanihk | Guts’ists’i

The inner City of Calgary, through the eyes of me and my pooch Aurora...

Photo sets start on 21 November 2020, the day after I rescued her.

Cute dog, man, and of course Calgary looks like a lovely city too.

Dog seems like she bonded with you right away. It's nice to see a rescued dog so obviously happy.

Very good, all of it.

Calgary is colorful...do you prefer pure office window lights or colorful deco lights

Thanks man. Yeah I prefer colour. Though sometimes it gets taken a bit far here. Thankfully it's most often tasteful.

Love dog-walking scenic photos. Have been known to take a few (hundred) myself. What has the local reaction been to the Telus Sky Tower? I personally think it's terrific-looking and definitely prefer it to the sort of upside-down version in Vancouver.

That was a fun photo tour! Calgary looks fantastic and has always intrigued me. Someday would love to come spend some time there and cruise into the mountains towards Banff and explore.

The Telus Sky Tower is a beaut! Love it.

Also, great looking pup.

Being a colder city, I'm surprised they don't have skyway bridges between the buildings like they have in Minneapolis. No underground tunnels?

Calgary has the longest skywalk system in the world (about 3 km longer than Minneapolis' system), but they only appear a few times in my photos so far.


Here's an example, and look farther down the canyon and you can see a ton more...

It was my gal's first time swimming in the Elbow River on Friday. I even went in up to my ankles, though the glacial waters (from glaciers only ~150 km away) nearly froze my feet off

This is at Sandy Beach Park, about 3.5 km south of downtown.
