Icefield Parkway

The road called the Icefield Parkway stretches 120 miles from Jasper to Lake Louise. It passes through some incredible scenery and although it could be driven easily in a few hours we spend three days passing though and still feel like we are rushing it. The parks service it considering a waking/cycling trail along the route and traveling by foot over a week or two would perhaps be the right pace. I take some pictures along the way knowing they can only give a

 glimpse of the experience. The panoramas of peaks, glaciers , lakes and rivers unfold with each turn of the road. I’ve been along this route four times and each time am more impressed.  I can’t really find words to express the impact of this much grand scenery. I’ll just hope the photos give an idea of what we’re seeing.
