Rawson Lake is an incredibly beautiful, jade, alpine lake buried in the mountains above the south side of Upper Kananaskis Lake in the shadow of 10,414 ft, (3,174 m) Mount Sarrail. It is located approximately 160km south west of the city of Calgary in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park Kananaskis Country. You can get some amazing photos of the entire length and breadth of Rawson Lake. If the Mountains surrounding the lake are covered in snow do not continue to hike around the lake because there is a risk of avalanches.
