In southern Alberta, just to the North West of Banff, and within Banff National Park, there are three terrific hiking opportunities, all at the same spot. Johnston Canyon offers a wonderful hike up Johnston creek, a tributary to the Bow River. A 1.5 mile hike leads to the lower falls, and that alone is worth the trip, because the lower falls are best seen once you, the viewer, pass over a bridge and through a natural tunnel to be sprayed with water from the falls themselves as they spill into a crystal blue pool.

Hiking Johnston Canyon

I love hiking, we're doing it every summer vacation. Everyone has been hearing about the squirrel vacation pictures. For those of you that live under a rock, the
squirrel vacation pictures refer to a picture that was submitted to the media of a squirrel that popped itself into the foreground of a family vacation shot. The picture was taken at Banff National
Park; a large national park located in the province of Alberta, Canada, and has made the rounds of media outlets. The picture is certainly cute, and it somewhat recalls the viral video series, Dramatic
Prairie Dog. If a person wanted their own version, a squirrel vacation picture could be easily duplicated with Photoshop, and no need for a personal loan to get out to Banff.
