In September 2011 we finally achieved a long held goal of visiting the Canadian Rocky mountain area around Banff National Park. We flew to Spokane Washington and drove North through Idaho into British Columbia. Our first overnight stop was a very nice B&B in Kimberley, BC. We then drove into the park region through the Kootenay National Park and then to the townsite of Banff. We had arranged an apartment in a private home in the townsite of Banff that was only a few blocks from the downtown area. Over the next week we hiked and marveled at the scenery throughout the Banff, Yoho and the edge of Jasper National Parks. We drove a long day back to Spokane for our return flight home.
