This is the most scenic place the two RV Gypsies have been to on this entire trip so far. Although they had to pay each day to drive on the Icefield Parkway, it was more than worth the money. The scenery was amazing and there was lots of wildlife.
It's a Beautiful day
From Jasper, the two RV Gypsies drove east via Yellowhead Highway 16. It was a very scenic view. The stretch of Highway 93 between Lake Louise and Jasper is called the Icefield Parkway, and it's one of the most scenic drives in North America, traversing Alberta's Banff and Jasper National Parks in the central Canadian Rockies. The Icefield Parkway accesses campgrounds and major attraction in Jasper and Banff National Parks.
Stopping alongside the highway shortly after leaving Jasper, the two RV Gypsies walked down a "path" to observe some beautiful scenery. This was just the start of the two RV Gypsies saying "WOW" around almost every corner.

Around the corner, the two RV Gypsies came to Icefield Centre on the east side of the highway. It featured interpretive displays about the Columbia Icefield as well as information services, food, lodging, restroom and public phones. The centre is open May 1 to October 15. Snow-coach tours of glaciers were available (see the photo below).

Parking for glacier views on west side of highway, provided the photos below. The glaciers visible from the road are fingers of the giant Columbia Icefield, which covers 241 square miles.
