No matter how many times I've driven up from Calgary I never get bored of the scenery.
I missed the boat in the early 90's when Canmore was still incredibly affordable. Such is life.

I drive Calgary to Panorama every second weekend or thereabouts. Never gets old. The highlight of the drive home at the end of the weekend is turning the slow corner at the top of the ridge as you head north and down the hill to the Kootenay River and you have the whole of the Kootenay River valley in front of you. From April to July, the mountains are capped in white over the green ( now somewhat burnt out) valley below. Absolutely spectacular. Against a deep blue alpine sky, little is prettier.
Also, for Canadian Rockies skiers:

2017/2018 CANADIAN ROCKIES THREAD
Followed a loaded Tacoma topped with a rack of skis, TGR sticker on the back of the cap, through Mt Robson PP today. Wyoming plates. They headed north as I took the south route at Tete Juane Cache. Wonder where they where headed to start their season?
A couple miles further south by Valemount, the skies opened a bit and there was a bit of fresh white in the alpine. Heavy frosts in the valley bottom expected this week, with some precip.

Tickets are on sale for Rockies Shred Fest (formerly Winterstoke). It's been a fucking blast in the past few seasons so if you're in or around Banff on 19th October you should be there.
