Dark starry skies in Jasper National Park, Alberta

---

Southwestern starry skies late in the night imaged from Jasper. The bright star in Sagittarius is Jupiter right next to the patch of Milky Way. The little light pollution close to the horizon comes from the small mountain village, the light trails are from trucks on the nearby road. The sky was otherwise pitch black, a heaven for astro-imaging.
