夏天去加拿大西部,建议一定要去一趟 Jasper, Lake Louise and Banff,这三个著名的旅游小城市。可以飞到Edmonton,租一车,再一路玩,Jasper, Lake Louise and Banff, 途中还可以看世纪冰川,及Continental Divide(大陆架分界线),然后再从Calgary飞回。
1) Jasper National Park:
It is the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies, spanning 10,878 km² (4200 mi²). It is located in the province of Alberta, to the north of Banff National Park and west of the city of Edmonton. The park includes the glaciers of the Columbia Icefield, hot springs, lakes, waterfalls.
Some of the park's many photogenic vistas include Mount Edith Cavell, Pyramid Lake with Pyramid Mountain, Maligne Lake, Medicine Lake, and the Tonquin Valley all considered best photographed at sunrise except for Maligne Lake, which is best in the evening. Other attractions are the Marmot Basin ski area, the Snocoach (bus-sized snowmobile) tours of the Athabasca Glacier, a distributary of the Columbia Icefield, Athabasca Falls, Maligne Lake, Whistler Sky-Tram the Jasper Tramway.
Among the most stunning of attractions is the Icefields Parkway, a highway 230 km (143 miles) in length from Lake Louise, Alberta in Banff National Park, to Jasper, Alberta. The highway parallels the continental divide, providing motor and cycle access to glorious mountain scenery.
2) A continental divide:
It is a line of elevated terrain which forms a border between two watersheds such that water falling on one side of the line eventually travels to one ocean, and water on the other side travels to another. The Great Divide, also called the Continental Divide, separates the watersheds of the Pacific Ocean from those of the Atlantic or Arctic Oceans. It runs from the Seward Peninsula in Alaska, through western Canada along the crest of the Rocky Mountains to New Mexico.
3) Jasper is a small, nice resort town of a population of 4,643 in 2006.

傍晚的Patricia Lake
我们住在一个离Jasper很近的Patricia Lake Resort里。这地方很漂亮,安静,没有灯光,噪音及任何其它污染。
