The poor trout have to deal with the ravages of hydro dams and harsh glacial runoff. Barrier Lake is a hydro invention, very pretty but also pretty barren.

Took me a few years to figure out that just walking over to the Bow River in downtown Calgary was the much better fly rod flexing proposition.

Looks like a very nice hike, I'm jealous in my downtown Vancouver lock-down...
