Day 9 – Lake Louise Campground, AB<\/p>\n

From Golden to Lake Louise is “only” 85 km. \u00a0 I thought I would take my time getting up. Golden is a picturesque gem; all surrounded by mountains but it’s not much of a town yet.<\/p>\n

The trip to Lake Louise was almost all up hill. My GPS\u00a0said it was about a 750 m ascent. \u00a0Although I suspect the elevation numbers I know first hand it was uphill.<\/p>\n

At about 1:45 pm I had my lunch in a little tourist town named Fields at a place called Trifle Pigs. I had a dainty serving of salmon and some fancy green stuff (not my usual Hamburger and Beer).<\/p>\n

The remaining 27 km from Fields to Lake Louise was tough; the ascent was considerable, I had a strong head wind and my front derailleur refused to switch to first. \u00a0I eventually made it.<\/p>\n

I was hunting for a place to eat supper and eventually \u00a0agreed with a couple from Holland to eat at a family restaurant so I could get my regular food.<\/p>\n

The campground and Lake Louise had a notice that tents weren’t allowed because of bear activities. I wasn’t going to argue! I ended up staying in the Mountaineer Lodge (the first place I came to.). \u00a0 These places have a few perks but the outdoors scenic experience is not one of them.<\/p>\n
