Write Up:
The ride to Peyto Lake from Lake Louise is definitely a very nice ride, one of my favourites now. Everything feels very untouched. There was always a lot to stare at; the wild flowers, the mountains, the lakes, and of course a few significant cracks along the shoulder. The way to Peyto Lake is basically all uphill on the way there, which made for a very quick return. The lake was just as beautiful as people had said and it is actually possible to bike all the way up to the upper look out point (thanks Mike!). My only criticism was the lunch at Num Ti Juh lodge, unfortunately they didn't have a lot of selection remaining so I would recommend bringing a lunch next time. I would suggest to anyone to make a trip out to the Icefield Parkway this summer, it's really a nice drive and it's so close to Calgary.
