Canadian Rockies (1) - Lake Louise

(2014-09-27 11:53:17) 下一个

The weather forecast said there was going to be snow tomorrow, so we decided to go to Lake Louise today, get it done when it was nice.

We arrived at Lake Louise parking lot before 10am, had no problem parking. Later in the afternoon, we saw people parked their cars up to a mile away along the road. Can't imagine how busy this place is in the summer.

18. Back to Lake Louise. The whole hike was 17.6 km (11 miles).


After Lake Louise, we went to Moraine Lake quickly. It was getting late, people were leaving, so we found parking easily. Here again we saw people parked their cars up to a mile away, along narrow 2-lane road with hardly any shoulder, and many signs saying 'no parking' along the road.

There were still so many people at Moraine Lake, and it started raining, so we didn't stay long. On day 8, on our drive from Jasper back to Calgary, we stopped by Moraine Lake again, and got to see the beautiful lake. Pictures to come later.

(To be continued)
