Banff & Jasper National Parks, Canada

Mountains viewed from hotel balcony, Canmore
Peak at Canmore
Reflections at Canmore

We came back last night from a 3 day road trip. We had headed south through the farms, forests and oilfields, along the western part of the prairies, to a place called Canmore. Then it was into the Banff National Park and North West along the Bow Valley and Icefield Parkways to Jasper.  With lots to see, we chose a few of the many possibilities, trying to avoiding the larger crowds.
