I went to Lake Louise today with Mikey. I had a blast with him. The conditions were brutal–it was cold, windy, and there was no new snow, but it was still fun!

We took the Greyhound bus from Calgary to Lake Louise a little after 8am and arrived at the resort around 11am. Also, when we arrived at the resort, I realised that I had forgotten my glasses on the bus! So I hope to get those back. If not, I guess I’ll just have to buy a new pair.

Now about the riding. As mentioned above, the conditions were terrible. Along with those conditions, one thing that I really did not like about Lake Louise is that there are TONS of mogul runs. They just pop up out of nowhere! Visibility was also bad high in the alpine. There were parts where we couldn’t see what was coming next so just to be safe, we went slow.

I know I’m really nitpicking at the resort. But I do feel that I caught it on a bad day. There is ample terrain to work with and it has so much potential on a nice powder day. Also, the lodges were beautiful and workers were friendly and helpful. I only hope that next time I ride at Lake Louise that I catch it on a nice powder day.

P.S. Photos will be added to this post after the holidays when I’m back at home with my computer.
