Long Weekend trip to Banff/Canmore/Calgary


First day of the trip it was rainy, second day sunny, third day snowy, fourth sunnyPhotos sorted by city/town. I stopped by Calgary for a bit on the way back and was planning on taking more pics, but my rechargeable camera finally gave out. All pics by me.

Banff,Alberta

Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel




The recently expanded sidewalks are proving to be a wise investment





Gotta have a Mcd's


A lot of interesting architecture in Banff
















One of the small indoor malls along Banff Ave














Lots of streefront retail off the main strip too now.




Unfortunately it was really cloudy most of the time.


Free Parking!!


Lake Minewanka, about 10km from Banff.


Canmore, Ab ( smaller resort town approximately 20km from Banff), small town but lots of development in the works, including the huge silvertip which will begin construction shortly I believe.

Where I stayed


Half the buildings in some areas are currently under construction






Lots of Cabin style designs in Canmore
