No western adventure would be complete without a opportunity to hear about some of the more colorful people who have explored and developed our Canadian Rocky Mountains. At evening campfires, your guide will trace the evolution of Banff from the arrival of the transcontinental railroad to its present status as an internationally known protected area. Share some tall tales and cowboy poetry before turning in for the night.
