We took 3 different tours with Discover Banff Tours
1. Discover Banff
2. Snowshoeing
3. Johnston Canyon Icewalk
We loved every tour but the Icewalk was such breathtaking scenery and so much fun, we had a fantastic guide, he was born in Scotland and had great people skills - He knew how to guide safely and make it so much fun, can recommend him as a guide if you ever get to Banff
PS Ken does not really think the climbers are idiots - just an Australian expression in use!

Cranbrook BC to Banff Alberta via Calgary
This is a short (very short) video driving through Crows Nest Pass in the Rocky Mountains in Alberta Canada. We travelled through the pass across the Mountains to Calgary and then on to Banff.
This trip took about 6 hours from Cranbrook to Banff with stops for photos and coffee included in that time. Due to road closers because of avalanche warnings the road from Radium to Banff was closed so on our return to Cranbrook we plan to take that shorter route through Radium and check out the Radium Hot Springs.

Cranbrook BC Canada
We arrived in Cranbrook on 21st of December. A perfect arrival with the snow falling so we were assured of our 'White Xmas' that we had hoped for.
A local resident of Cranbrook met us at the airport and drove us to our accommodation with a quick guide of the town area and a casserole for our dinner. That is what I call local hospitality!
