Canada - Fran and Mark's second adventure
The Rockies
Canmore, Alberta
An early start and long flight, followed by a 2hr car drive gave us our first view of the magnificent Rockies bathed is sunlight and swirling shower clouds.We finally arrived in Canmore in a valley of the Rockies where an Elk burger and artisan beer finished a long day. Next day we set off scrambling up a very steep mountain path and waterfall to the crystal clear Gassi lakes where several ' nutters' were dangling off the sheer mountain faces. We could look back over a panoramic view of the valley with Canmore nestled next to the raging Bow river. We were rewarded with seeing a family of hunting owls high up on the cliff face as we finished off our first day- knackered!
