• Revelstoke -> Japser (Part 2)

    19 augusti 2023, Kanada ⋅ ☀️ 8 °C

    Next stop on the road was Bow Lake, which as expected was super busy. Some RV’s were clearly a lot more ballsy than us and drove down the single downhill track road with cars lining either side - Oli broke a sweat just thinking about having to navigate that, so we parked up as close as we could to the main road and trekked down. We went for a short stroll around the edge but headed back to the RV fairly quickly to escape from the crowds - this was more people than we’d seen in the last several days combined.

    After this stop we then gassed it another couple of hundred kilometres to the Columbia Icefield (of course under the speed limit the whole time, even though no one else was - everyone here seems to take the limits as a suggested minimum speed). Our speed walking across the parking lot got us to the Skywalk just in time 60 seconds before the last bus.

    The Skywalk is a glass walkway which is suspended 300m above the valley and sways a lot in the wind. Neither of us were scared though, obviously.
