From the dizzying
height of your Rocky
Mountain peak. Past
the jagged cliffs
where mountain goats
huddle, through the
forest where grizzly
bears mark their
territory on
evergreen trunks,
past the migrating
herd of caribou in
the valley and
across a crystal
clear lake. You take
extra care walking
across the ice
fields between
Jasper and Banff,
the crackle of ice
beneath your boots
both thrilling and
unnerving.
A
very forgiving steed
leads you through
the rolling
foothills under a
blazing sun. It
saunters
nonchalantly through
the Badlands of
flat-topped hoodoos
as you gape at the
dinosaur impressions
left in the
sandstone cliffs. A
rewarding stop in
Calgary yields,
among other treats,
a bold steak, an
ice-cold drink and a
whole lot of western
hospitality
Combining wild alpine beauty with first-class
amenities, Banff and Lake Louise offer vacation
possibilities as diverse as the Canadian Rocky
Mountain landscapes themselves. Few places in the
world have such stunning scenery, and fewer still
offer the warm hospitality and excellent service you
can enjoy in Canada's first national park |
