How long does a trip last? Not in duration. In memories. In the stories you’ll tell friends. In the spare minutes when you think back to that hike to Yoho Lake—when you looked in awe across to Takakkaw Falls and your leader quietly mentioned it’s the second highest in Canada and you’re amazed that there could be a higher one. Then you think of the enormity of Plain of Six Glaciers. The intense blues of Moraine Lake. And the sun cutting over Lake Louise, across the jagged mountains that you didn’t catch the names of. And in those brief seconds before you go back to real life, you’ll realize your Canadian Rockies hiking adventure still isn’t over.
