Jasper Getaway
Hey guys, so i figured i take my car to Jasper, finally.
The weather was beautiful. Blue skies, 25 degrees all day. So I had my top down and just let it rip.
-Drove up part way to Marmot Basin (half way is barricaded off). Saw a group of bikers coming up as I was coming back down. Very fun.
-Tried to drive up Edith Cavell, but i guess the morning of, they had a big ice glacier that broke off and landed at the base of the mountain. Completely destroying the road/picnic/outhouse area.
-Highway 93A was a great drive from Edith to Athabasca Falls. Great hike btw if you want to see a waterfall.
-Drove up to Miette Hot Springs. That drive was 19km with a lot of hairpins and some straight runs to pick up a lil speed. Togue anyone?
Anyway, it's worth a trip once a year. Just keep it within your driving limits and keep your eyes peeled for wildlife, cars, and road debris.
I have pictures on my phone. Can uplaod on FB. Not sure how to link to here though.... Also made a video of me driving if anyone is interested
