The bikers went over the mountain

In limbo right now. Caught up with day job and can't start any new projects since I'm leaving at noon to go home and finish up packing. Checking out LJ and going back over the list of what I need to bring with me to make sure I've got everything packed.

For enquiring minds here's the itinerary.

Day 0 Travel day, meet tour in Calgary, drive up to Banff

Day 1 Banff - Bow Parkway - Johnston Canyon - Vermillion Pass - Kootenay Park Vermillion Crossing; 43 miles (1,200' elevation change)

Day 2 Kootenay Park - Sinclair Pass - Radium Hot Springs; 48 miles (1,500' elevation change)

Day 3 Radium Hot Springs - Columbia River Valley - Golden; 64 miles (800' elevation change)

Day 4 Golden - Yoho National Park - Kicking Horse Pass - Lake Louise; 51 miles (2,500' elevation change)

Day 5 Lake Louise - Icefields Parkway - Bow Lake - Bow Summit - PeytoLake - Mistaya Canyon - Saskatchewan Crossing; 48 miles (2,000' elevation change)

Day 6 Saskatchewan Crossing - Sunwapta Pass - Columbia Icefields - Sunwapta Falls; 58 miles (2,500' elevation change)

Day 7 Sunwapta Falls - Athabasca Falls - Jasper; tour concludes 32 miles (800' elevation change)

Day 8 Travel day

Daily mileage is shorter than on some other tours we've taken, but the elevation changes will add that special touch. In addition to biking, some days include hiking in the afternoon.
