That would be awesome. This summer has pretty much been a crap shoot for anything but I would LOVE to make it some time!!! I think that would be a great trip and easy to do!
I am under the impression that the Banff to Jasper hiway is one of the TOP 10 MOST BEAUTIFUL drives in North America, cannot remember where I read that a few years ago, everyone who has a chance to experience this should,
and
what better way than in a corvette caravan,
we need a group name or motto,

While part of the province had rainy weather Jasper and area was actually beautiful this past Saturday. ScaryFast, Jeffer2013 and I all got to Hinton on Friday. Roads were wet on the way in but nothing a quick car wash couldn't handle. We met up for breakfast and then headed out towards Jasper.
We stopped at the JAsper Park Lodge. Concierge was happy to let us park up by the door while we wanderd around.
Into Jasper for lunch @ Earl's where we all visited and got to know eachother. Jeff and Robin from our previous cruise, Ken and Linda from Ft. McMurray and Brent, my sidekick. Jo had other commitments so Brent had to fill in navigator duties. Funny, when I asked him all he could do was giggle like a schoolgirl!
We stopped on the Icefields Parkway for a break and pic. Jeff used the airbrake method to stop! Car on left is Ken and Linda's 2008 Indy Pace car with a "little" surprise under the hood. The hint is on the windshield.
Clouded in by the time we hit the Icefields. From here we stopped at Saskatchewan Crossing fro a break. Ken and Linda headed to Calgary and Jeff, Robin Brent and I headed home east towards Rocky Mountain House.
Jeef, Robin, Ken, Linda and Brent thank you all for coming out. As usual it was a good time.
