I spent this morning riding high into the Rockies on a Gondola- you know what that is? It is a miniscule compartment meant to contain 4 adults , and it is sent high up to the 1600m level right up to the top of Sulphur Mountain. From this height it is possible to view the whole Banff Valley, and appreciate the enormity of those Rocky Mountains. The webcam on the hyperlink gives an amazing view- check it out.
I walked back down the mountain( not right from the top tho') and through the forests. I saw my first Bighorn sheep , marmot, squirrels, jay, elk, and a chipmunk.
Having never seen a squirrel , except for in Vancouver, it was pretty neat.
Aimed to do some more walking today , but have decided to go shopping instead- a very relaxing activity.
