Wow is the only word I can use to describe the most beautiful place on earth. In a canoe, on a glacier lake in the center of 10,000 foot mountains is indescribable. Lake Louise is one of those places I will remember forever. Banff, 30 minutes away is a really quaint little alpine town with a cute downtown and such. It is also the home of $6.00 milk, $4.00 gasoline, and so on. Pricey, but I guess you pay for the view there.
There are few RV parks in Banff so we were relegated to a national park. Ok, I like national parks too but they mean no internet and in this case cell service was also sketchy. I nearly went into withdrawal...
In Banff and Lake Louise we walked within a stone's throw of a monstrous glacier, saw big horn sheep, saw the world's most beautiful lake, paid the most I have ever paid or groceries, and most importantly saw our first bear! Yes, it's true, a momma grizzly and her cub grazing in a meadow and we were less than fifty feet away. there was no cage either, these were wild bears. Did I mention we were on a ski lift. Ok, it was obviously safe but seeing them that close took my breath away.
