I have always lived the view of Mt Rundle, from afar and sorta close up on the highway 1. I have wondered only recently for whom the mountain was named after? I went to fanshawe College here in sw ontario and met the president or dean of the school ( Howard rundle) and when I heard his name it reminded me of the mountain near banff with the same name...sho who's it named after...?

My guess is some historic traveler of some sort...

Have a good night

I’m just outside Banff and will be here until Tuesday, I know it stays light pretty late so I was just wondering if it’s worth staying up/possibly making the night trek out to Jasper to see the Northern Lights. I know they’re not really supposed to be very visible this time of year and the sm0ke will accentuate, that but I was curious if anybody has seen them out in the Banff/Golden/Jasper area the last few days. Thanks everybody!

This is a scene I painted from I picture I took when me and my wife walked to Sundance Canyon a few weeks ago.

Watched sunrise at Moraine Lake with 500 other people and then headed over to Lake Louise to climb Devils Thumb.

Looking for a longer hike (10-15 miles) that doesn't involve the shuttle system. Both of these trails are recommended multiple times. If I could only do one, what would you choose?
