Banff a great place!!

Took a winding drive up to Mt. Norquay and a lookout. There is a large ski resort near the top were a lot of people gather in the winter. We were not allowed any further than the ski resort do to an avalanche. The road up gave us a view of a couple of mountain goats. We got to get a pretty up close picture from our truck. I keep looking for a grizzly bear but none yet:)

Since we had the afternoon left, we decided to drive on over to Lake Minnewanka. It was beautiful drive and the lake was very big and bright blue. The lake was first known as “ the Lake of the Water Spirits.” We took a hike along the shoreline to a small bridge and views were really something. On the drive back to Banff we saw a long horn sheep. The wild animals always stop the cars on the roadway. You just wait until it's your turn to see what the fuss is about.
