That one. Will keep the 10 week thing in mind. We'll see when we get passport shit sorted out. It's funny - we took shots and were ready to go over a year ago but dealing with the SSA in Los Angeles is a FUCKING NIGHTMARE. Like, we got up early to do it on a Saturday down by LAX and the line was already four blocks long nightmare. And then we didn't get around to it until, like, now.
I've not been to the area, but you're only 2 hrs drive away from some hot springs just on the other side of the BC-AB border. AND you would get to go through Glacier National Park , which is gorgeous.
looks like the ones I was looking at are only open until the fall - which seems dumb to me but to be fair they do have to use a howitzer to keep the highway open in the winter.
I went to the Canmore Nordic Centre to snow shoe. Never stood on skis in my life before, but it was fun (and exhausting). I only had one near-death experience almost speeding down a trail. Don't know how it's like with the kid though.
