Alberta, Canada (2012)
The Athabasca Glacier is located along the 230 km (140 miles) long 'Icefields Parkway', a beautiful scenic route through the Canadian Rocky Mountains that we drove from Banff to Jasper. A snow coach with giant wheels brought us from the Icefield Centre onto the glacier, where we got out to have a look around and take photographs. It's a very tourist-thing to do, but a nice experience!
Makes me wonder what kind of special training is required to drive a snow coach.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenNee die bustocht zat er niet in maar we hebben wel op een gletsjer langs deze route gestaan. Onvergetelijke trip.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenSweet memories, heb ook genoten van deze Icefield Parkway.
