Near the top of Cascade Mountain in Banff National Park is this geological feature carved out by an ancient and long-gone glacier. This is the “back side” of Cascade Mountain: the other side is what you see when you look eastward down the main street in the Banff town site.

Going up Cascade Mountain in Banff National Park was made a little easier thanks to many exposed tree roots serving as steps going up and down the trails.

Returned to Banff National Park on Friday to hike up Cascade Mountain with a friend. Afterwards, we took over a couple of Muskoka chairs on the shore of Lake Minnewanka for a quick, late lunch — with a nice view on the side.

Here are a few more snaps from a visit around the town of Banff last weekend.
Looking east(ish), above, through the trees at the top of Tunnel Mountain. Below, from top to bottom, Cascade Mountain looms over Banff Avenue, seen from bridge over the Bow River; looking west(ish) along the Bow River and the Canadian Pacific rail line, from top of Tunnel Mountain; and two images from the Marsh Loop trail.

Went with a friend to hike this past weekend in the town of Banff, nestled amongst the mountains in the national park bearing the same name. This is one of the splendid views along the Bow River from within the town.
