A week from today, Kris and I will be headed on a backpacking journey from Banff to Lake Louise along the Sawback Trail in Banff National Park.  We’ll be spending 7 days and 6 nights travelling 74 kms through the mountain passes and valleys from Mt. Norquay  into the Skoki area, ending at the Temple Road.  Along the way, we hope to take in a few scrambles of the mountains we pass by, especially in the Skoki area — whose mountains I haven’t visited yet.  We’ll be taking the western route, through Mystic Pass and Johnstons Creek route.  Should be a good trek.  Lets hope for good weather, minimal bugs and an absence of hungry bears! 🙂
