A short weekend trip to Calgary to visit some of my favorite national parks – Banff and Yoho. Spent Saturday with Beth Allan (thanks Beth!) visiting different sites throughout Banff. Saturday night I experienced Beakerhead’s Beakernight in Calgary. Sunday and Monday were spent exploring the parks before catching a redeye home Monday evening.
The beauty in all of these parks are unrivaled. You definitely should try and visit this part of the world if you can! Moraine Lake continues to be one of the most awe inspiring sights I have ever seen.
