The following information was noted while the image was nominated for featured picture status.

Comment - baffled . . . "This photo was taken on January 6, 2006" . . . so why the trees in autumn colours, and lack of snow in a heavy-snowfall area? Definitely something odd here. I'd say October or early November. - MPF 16:25, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Interesting that you noticed. This photo was taken in January, but this year we had one of the most bizarre winters in Alberta I have ever seen. We didn't get any snow until early February. If you look at this picture you can see the river is a bit frozen over. Regarding the color of the trees, those are all evergreens. Anomity 19:58, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
My guess is the fall colors are due to the time of day--it looks like you took the picture at sunset. This is a stunning picture, and I would love to take the train through this area! Any idea what line it's on? I know Jasper was a fairly large railroad hub at one point, and I know the Athabasca River runs through that area. Who knows--if we get our Alaska/Canada rail link up and running before I retire, I may get to run a train over it! Cluth 08:45, 15 August 2006 (UTC)
