Save yourself time, effort, money and avoid disappointment by reading this concise guide. As a Canadian resident, Darren Critchley has been visiting the Canadian Rockies for over 30 years, and continues to do so on an annual basis. In this Canadian Rockies travel guide, he covers all the major attractions plus some "lesser known insider attractions and information" for Jasper, Banff, Lake Louise and Yoho National Park. In some cases it was years before he discovered some of the "secrets" of the Canadian Rockies -- and he shares all of that and more in this book detailing the best time to visit, which attractions to visit in inclement weather, how long it takes to get between destinations, and rough estimates on how long each attraction can take to explore. He allows you to "plan you trip down to a 'T'," with first-hand knowledge, humor, and information from an experienced Canadian Rocky traveler. Whether you're planning a trip to the Canadian Rockies, thinking about planning one, or simply want to explore some beautiful photography and "insider info" with your family, this guide is an invaluable resource from a trusted and experienced source. Many of us have limited time on our vacations, want to make the most of it, and find it very difficult to see everything that we want to. On top of that, some sites may not be of interest to all people. When on a fairly restrictive schedule, it helps to know all your options, plan your trip accordingly, and set contingencies. Critchley helps you to do that. Use this book to "plan your trip, and ensure you'll get the most out of your trip by being informed" with realistic and authentic information that goes well beyond generic travel guides.
