My favorite is Banff and Jasper. Waterton burned seven years ago. Seems
like 90%. My wife liked the Prince of Wales hotel.
“Waterton burned seven years ago. Seems like 90%.”
I didn’t know that. We drove through enough burned areas.

We have reservations there.
The town of Banff was quite crowded and I hate city crowds. We took the #2 bus to the Bow River and hiked the Bow River Trail toward the Hoodoos. Before long, we were in wilderness forest and began thinking “I wish we had our bear spray.” But we came across a few mtn bikers and hikers, so that allayed that fear.
We really enjoyed Lake Meligne east of Jasper. We drove up without boat tour reservations and they were all booked up, so we rented a canoe and passed the lake for an hour. It was absolutely spectacular.
We also stayed at Revelstoke. We were very surprised to find out it is a famous ski area for experts as we’d never heard of it. We are FAR from experts.
We re-visited Whistler wher our daughter had previously lived for several years. I’m no fan of ski resorts, but the trams get you into the mountains quickly and the trails on Blackcomb Mtn didn’t have many people.
