Day 26 - Jasper, AB to High River, ABMiles today - 337 miles
Total miles - 8994 miles
What a difference a day makes! After yesterday's rain, we were thrilled to have a beautiful day for a ride!
We left Jasper and headed out on the famous Icefields Parkway. It is one of the most spectacular drives we've ever been on.
The Athabasca River roars through this narrow gorge.
Chris is standing at the falls beyond the gorge.
The mountains had many different shapes. This group looked as if the face had been sheared off.
Just one of the many amazing sights!
A roadside stop - with an awesome view!
The glacier at the end of Lake Louise.
Behind Chris, you see Lake Louise. The turquoise color of the lake comes from the pigments of the melting glacier.
As we rode toward Calgary, we went from the Jasper National Park to the Banff National Park. It was worth the trip north just for this one stretch of 154 miles. You could spend several days here if you had time to stop and hike on the all the trails.
