Photograph of the outdoor swimming pool at the Banff Springs Hotel, as viewed from above. The camera looks down towards the swimming pool. It extends across the image on an upward angle from left to right. The back edge of the pool is curved. A few people are barely visible in the pool. Groups of people walk around the pool's back edge. Behind the pool, a manicured lawn stretches back and across the image. Hotel guests lounge in chairs dotting the lawn. A wooden fence lines the back perimeter of the lawn. Pine trees stand in the background.
