By this detour a traveller can leave the train either at Banff or Golden, stay the night at Lake Louise, and continue the motor drive next morning, rejoining the train that afternoon. This new motor road, built by the Canadian Government through Rocky Mountain, National Park and Yoho National Park, is a very magnificent one. At one point it rises to a height over a mile above sea level, while at the highest point it is nearly three-quarters of a mile higher than at its lowest level. Nearly forty mountains tower in the vicinity of the road, and gigantic glaciers, roaring rivers, deep canyons and primeval forests abound. Wild mountain ? also t with i Motoring in the Canadian Rockies is the tourist's keenest delight, more especially after a railway journey. For this reason a schedule has been drawn up for the season of 1928, to coincide with the arrivaLftnA departure of trains at Banff, Field or Golden. The large touring cars used for ttus trip are commodious and comfortable, with facilities for hand-baggage. Johnston's Canyon, 16 mites from Banff, is the first stop made going west.

Lower right--Every cum mtr nth as the undisturbed magnificence of the Mi -The highway is fringed with thick woods as show ards Castle Mountain, cuts through high rock walls and is spanned at intervals by tiny rustic bridges, reminders of Japanese prints. The canyon is deep and cool, and the walk of 80 mln-utes is delightful. Lovers of nature should rise early at Lake Louise to see H»e coloring on this rem of mountain lakes, for the glaciers and high peaks are diffused with superb shades of rose and gold. A beautiful spot on this trip is Wapte Bungalow Camp, a veritable village of camps nestling on the shore of Wapta Lake--the source of the Kicking Horse River. The Yoho Valley is beautiful beyond imagination, a virgin country unacarred by fires. Takak-kaw Palls are at the end of the valley and come tumbling down in a lacy pattern almost 1,500 feet. The Yoho Camp is a few hundred, yards away. Emerald Lake, seven miles from Field, is a vision of sylvan loveliness, and a Swiss chalet adds to its attractiveness. From Field to Golden the highway follows the Kicking Horse River most of the way and the scenery is spectacular, the road hugging the mountain-side, with the river 700 feet below.
