Bow Valley Parkway to Banff Thursday, September 12th

Yoho to Banff



Bow Valley Parkway
Today’s move from Yoho National Park to Banff takes us by way of the Bow Valley Parkway. Mostly it was a scenic drive with several viewpoint stops such as Castle Mountain and Moose Meadows where once again we saw no moose. We also enjoyed a nice lunch stop at  the Muleshoe Picnic area. (No mules!) We had a good rain in the night and found snow on the mountains around us as we traveled. 

Our next campground is the Tunnel Mountain Village 2 which we found with no problem along with many other people who seemed to find it. After getting the trailer settled into it’s new home, we headed to the town of Banff. We stopped by the visitors center to say hi and ask for a coffee shop suggestion. One of the recommendations was the Whitebark Coffee Shop which we walked to and enjoyed a lite snack, good coffee, and fast internet.


Cascade Gardens
Banff is a very busy tourist town with many shops and places to eat. We explored around and really enjoyed an art gallery of an absolutely amazing wildlife photographer by the name of Jason Bantle. His website is https://allinthewild.com. We walked across the river from the main part of town and discovered the delightful Cascade Gardens.
