Whamff, Banff, thank you mamff
Well, we did it again. This time it was a 2-lane road, and one in Canada, but it still led to a one-horse town. Because we got a jump on today by passing up the small town and driving to Spokane, we got to our destination of beautiful downtown Cranbrook, British Columbia at 1:30 today.

Hiking at Lake Louise
... sat an enjoyed the views for a long time. We could see the peaks to the north along the southern end of the Icefields Parkway, all the runs carving up the forest on the ski mountain and the long and wide Bow River Valley leading down to Banff. The view of Lake Louise and it blue milky waters was a treat. In one location we could even peer over the edge to the small Mirror Lake we passed much early. A couple of gray jays entertained us, probably hoping ...
