On my final day in the Icefields area I woke to more rain, so I decided to check out Yoho’s Iceline trail.  For the effort (750 M elevation gain all on a cushy trail) the scenery can’t be beat.  The views in all directions were spectacular.  Too bad I forgot to bring more film along, and only had 4 exposures!  I will return here in a few weeks with the large format camera.  There’s no map view, since this part of Yoho borders 3 NTS mapsheets, and I feel too lazy to cut and paste them in Photoshop.

As soon as you leave treeline you parallel small glaciers for the whole trail
