Here is the sound of Lake Minnewanka, a glacier-fed mountainous valley in order to get a closer look at the stars.  I brought my field recorder with me and was fortunate enough to capture the innocent sound of water rolling against the base of the mountains.  It was one of those spectacular moments in nature that instilled a great sense of peace in all of us.  Although it was rather cold outside, the more I listened the warmer I felt.
