Looks like I'm adding Canada to my "adventure" travel list!

I received an incredibly kind email from a friend today. The kind of email that makes you pause and smile (I LOVE those emails). I'm not going to copy and paste all of it, but here's the cool part about Canada...

From Mr. GM: "You will be close to one of my favorite places in the world. Lake O'Hara in the Yoho National Park, just over the Alberta line in British Columbia and near Banff--can't be more than a day's drive from Yellowstone. It's a limited access, high mountain retreat (reservations were sold out before the end of last season), but you can still get on a 8:30 am bus arranged by Parks Canada, ride up an eight-mile dirt road and the spend the day hiking into the back country of the high Canadian Rockies. Tea at the lodge around 4pm is a great way to end the day...not exactly 100 percent rustic, but civilized and the trails into the Opabin Plateau, or Lake MacArthure are otherworldly. If you do it, say hi to Bruce and Allison Miller. The bears might not take to lulu so be careful."

Love it! How amazing does this place sound! Thanks for the recommendation. Hope I get a spot on the bus!! :)
