Banff National Park


Wednesday noon was at Banff National Park. These mountains are sharp and beautiful.
The Banff Springs Hotel opened in the late 1800's. Massive but well designed.
The view off the Hotel's back patio. The Powder River flows through the golf course and towards Calgary (about 60 miles to the east.) Back in the 1920's, motel patrons would spend three months in the summer. For a measily $50,000.
