Canada's Rocky Mountains are mesmerizing. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, your walks through alpine meadows among wildflowers make you feel clear-headed and alive as well as anywhere else on earth. There are pristine glacier lakes of a jaw-dropping emerald hue; skin-tingling, crisp mountain air; and views so spectacular you will stand among peaks, hollering hallelujah with your arms held high. You will travel the Plain of Six Glaciers to the dazzling waters of Lake Louise, a green jewel of a lake nestled in a valley between gorgeous peaks. Quartzite cliffs and melt water streams give way to a splendid view of all six glaciers. You will see extraordinary mountain vistas, stunning lakes and abundant waterfalls, and sometimes walls of ice, enroute to Jasper National Park. At Stutfield Glacier, the interlacing channels of a braided river flow along the valley floor and evolve into the majestic Sunwapta Falls. The Sunshine Meadow Trail is a sub-alpine paradise. Come, connect with nature and feed your soul with pristine mountain beauty. Dinner is served!
