Day 6
The decent from the Lake Agnes Teahouse
August 25, 2017 in Canada ⋅ 🌙 5 °C
The decent down from the Lake Agnes Teahouse did not disappoint. We took the advice of the waitress at the teahouse who told us of another route down the mountain which meets up with mirror lake and joins back to our original trail. This trail took us past the infamous Beehive which also provided beautiful views of another mountain tucked in behind beehive. The trek was steep, but worth the extra effort. The one benefit was no crowds! We were the only ones on this trail which made it quite enjoyable. Once at mirror lake, our trail joined back up with the main one which had horses on it and tons of people. Avoiding the horse poop was difficult, but we were so happy to be finally descending this mountain. Encouraging those climbing that it wasn't to much further!Read more

Day 6
Last night fun in Banff and Canmore
August 25, 2017 in Canada ⋅ 🌙 7 °C
After lunch, we headed to see the Cave and Basin in Banff, but unfortunately, they were already closed. We drove over then to the Bow Falls which is right behind the Banff Springs hotel. Quite a beautiful spot, plus it gave us a chance to see the iconic castle looking hotel. From there we strolled the streets of Banff doing a little more shopping before heading to our reservation at Eureka Banff Escape Room. The escape room was extremely challenging but we did manage to make our way out, only about 5 min over the given time to escape. Not too shabby considering this room only has a 12% escape success rate! We stopped for a group photo, then headed back to the vehicle to drive back to Canmore. On the drive back, we drove up Tunnel Mountain Road to stop at the scenic viewpoint of the hoodoos. Once in Canmore we ate at a great place called Tavern 1883. The service was great and the food was awesome. Next we headed back to the condo to share our photos and great memories from this amazing trip. Sad that it has all come to an end, but we are all feeling pretty tired. Off to bed we go as we need to get up early for our flights home tomorrow!Read more

Day 6
Lake Louise, AB
August 25, 2017 in Canada ⋅ ☀️ 13 °C
Had to stop for some classic pics of Lake Louise. It was definitely busier than earlier this morning, but we managed our way and still got some great shots. From there we planned to go to Lake Moraine, but the road was blocked off as the parking lot was full. Gonna have to wait until next time I guess. We were all a little hungry, so we decided to head to Banff for some lunch and souvenir shopping.Read more

Day 7
All Good Things Must Come To An End
August 26, 2017 in Canada ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
The time has come, it's our last morning together and we must head back to the Calgary Airport. The drive back was pretty quite. We were all feeling pretty tired and a little bummed that this long anticipated trip has come to an end. After almost a year of planning, we are finally here. We made incredible memories to share with family and friends, exploring one of the most beautiful parts of Canada. 5 National Parks, 14 Trails, 40 Km Hiked, 4553 ft in elevation climbed all in 7 fantastic days. Hard to sum up the highlights as everyday brought something new and different. What a privilege it was to spend this time with family. We will never forget this incredible journey. Until next time...Read more
