Calgary to Banff

I decided to travel to Banff the next morning and then on to Lake Louise. Starbucks has discovered Banff and Banff has grown up over the past 15 years since my last visit. Ditto for Canmore which is now much larger and way more commercialized now. Lake Louise was no different and I decided to push onwards to the Columbia Ice Field and Jaspar until I hit the roadside update sign that announced that the road conditions were poor up ahead and travel was not recommended without tire chains, so I decided to head to Kamloops.

The drive to Kamloops from lake Louise was awesome and when I arrived in Kamloops I discovered it too had grown in size since my last visit. I spend the night and was up early to head to Vancouver and eventually the ferries to Victoria. What the heck, I figured I might as well go as far west as I could on this drive.

TTYL,

Jim
