August 11: Jasper National Park, Day 1

August 11
Today we get to the cute little town of Jasper, like a ski resort town, lots of shops, bars, restaurants, etc.
Information Center

Maligne Canyon, which we learn is actually a gorge, is our next hike.

Notice the heart shaped chockstone.
We stop at Medicine Lake.

Results of a past fire.

On to Maligne Lake where a momma moose stops the hikers as she is in the lake eating the brown seaweed while her two young calves are on land.
We hike along the lake before our drive back to town.



Dinner is at the Whistler's Stop Pub with an English Ale and a delicious Red Rock Honey Brown.
