• Canmore Arrival

    August 30 in Canada ⋅ 🌙 17 °C

    An earlier than normal start with a quick coffee before driving up the nearby Revelstoke Mountain. Entry is from 8am. About a 40 minute ascent of 25 km by car reaching the car park at 1800m. Then a 1 km hike to the summit and some lovely lakes. Absolutely stunning scenery of subalpine fauna and surrounding mountains. We then drove to Golden and admired the Kicking Horse Range while having some lunch. Off in the car again, bypassing Lake Louise and Banff (we will be back). Arriving in Canmore late afternoon to a home exchange that can only be described as WOW. We had a walk around downtown Canmore and then settled down with a drink overlooking the beautiful mountains and a BBQ for dinner.Read more
