Not a problem Steve. We were actually planning to leave this month but my wife suffered a fall several weeks ago and bruised her ribs. She’s pretty much recovered but it’s now become somewhat of a logistical nightmare trying to organize the trip. It’s pretty much fallen all on my shoulders and I’m not sure if I’m able to pull it off. July would be worse with summer traffic at its peak. Fall is out as my wife plans on returning home overseas to visit family.
I’m currently situated in Lake Louise and look forward to riding the Highline trail tomorrow. My brain hurts thinking about the west coast trip so this singletrack ride is a temporary distraction albeit a positive one.
Here’s pic that I took today near Castle Mt Junction along the shores of the Bow River with Castle Mountain lending a dramatic backdrop.

Killing some time before tomorrow's ride. The double track Tramline trail that runs from Lake Louise all the way down to the village. It’s a great way to get to the townsite without having to deal with all of that horrendous traffic below.
