Cross the Street with an Ungulate

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

Wildlife sightings are so common in the town of Banff and Lake Louise, locals can be recognized as those who don’t stop, flinch or gape at deer or elk. The ungulates too seem to have adapted to mountain town life and use crosswalks and sidewalks pretty frequently; they are the path of least resistance after all.

Tempt your Taste Buds with Poutine

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

Poutine appears on every menu up North. It’s a dish of fries smothered in gravy and topped with squeaky cheese curds. It is fondly called a heart-attack-on-a-plate but this Canadian classic is comfort food at its best. Poutine can be found at all three ski resorts as well as many restaurants around town.

A Lap in Delirium Dive

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_column_text title=”” disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″ animation=”” el_class=””]

Sunshine Village boast some of the gnarliest inbounds terrain available at a resort anywhere.  Delirium Dive requires a beacon, shovel and probe to access, but, if you have the skills, it’s the stuff of legends.

Skate the Lake

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

Lake Louise has a groomed skating area cleared in front of the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise.  Bring skates because it may well be the prettiest place on earth to get on the ice and a great way to make your Instagram followers jealous.

Back Side Bowls

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

Lake Louise Ski Resort is known for the epic vistas of glaciers, jagged peaks and pristine wildness stretching to the horizon, but if you are looking for your own stash of pow, head straight to the back bowls. You won’t be disappointed.

Lunch at the Cliff House Bistro

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

Built to withstand a full blown avalanche back in the 1950s, the Cliff House Bistro is nestled nicely into the mountain side at Mt. Norquay. The result is a retro Bond-like overlook with arguably the best vistas of the town of Banff and great meals for a sit-down lunch at the resort.

Apres in Style Caesar

[/mk_fancy_title][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_column_text disable_pattern=”true” align=”left” margin_bottom=”0″]

In Canada, Caesars are a drink. This northern cousin of the Bloody Mary replaces the tomato juice with clamato (a clam and tomato juice – it is better than it sounds…). The result is less viscous and delicious!
