super indeed

super book with an interesting mix of history, recommendations, and photographs. i was very glad i read through this book before i visited the area.

The best tour book ever written!

I travel quite a bit in my job as a computer trainer. I had the rare priviledge of working on a project in Edmonton, Alberta on several trips.I've toured the Jasper to Banff (and reverse) Icefields Parkway five times, and Mt. Robson twice. It was on my second weekend trip during a rest stop at The Crossing that I spied a different kind of book. The stunning photography and well-organized sections sold me on the spot. This guide made my ride that day on the Icefields Parkway an experience I'll never forget. It has everything: maps, history, biographies, and hotel guides, you name it! I still get it out occasionally to relive the most beautiful trips I've been on.There's even a section on best times and techniques to photograph certain places. I have taken it with me every trip to help me identify and record where my numerous photos were taken. I always recommend this book as an essential part of any excursion into the area. Read it before you go, that way you won't miss anything!
