Solo 3-day backpacking hike in the Canadian Rockies
Solo 40 km backpack hike to Howse pass in Banff Park, Alberta. This is an abandoned fur trading route. I show tricks for making life easy in the wilderness. The trail was in such bad shape, with so much deadfall, that I had to abandon my attempt to reach the pass. Check out Brian Patton's blog on this trail at: He's one of the co-authors of my favorite hiking book The Canadian Rockies Trail Guide.
Best part of making these video (other than the hike) is matching music. For this video I used:
1:50 Instrumental version of Madonna's Amazing found on YouTube.
7:20 Instrumental version of the Tragically Hip's Wheat King found on YouTube. The Hip are an amazing Canadian band from Ontario.
15:10 Instrumental version of Collective Soul's Shine. Done by Nick Scott. He's on YouTube as Ambonick1 (
19:20 Instrumental version of U2's Bad. Great song by an even greater band.

Banff, located in Banff National Park in the Canadian Rockies, is one part resort town and one part breathtaking natural retreat.
Life is a little different at over 4,600 feet in elevation—by the way, that makes Banff Canada’s highest town. During your Banff sightseeing, you’ll learn that the town’s residents and visitors are a lively bunch, and you’ll find the local businesses are perfect for this festive crowd. Choose from over 100 restaurants to dine at, or stop by one or two of the dozens of pubs and cafes for an inexpensive snack and drink after walking through the many boutiques. You can also enjoy a marvelous time after the sun goes down; try dancing the night away at the Dancing Sasquatch, or visiting one of Banff’s other nightclubs.
Banff National Park is known for its wildlife, some of which frequents Banff itself. You’ll often spot deer at the outskirts of town, some of which are friendly and curious about people. Once you say hello to the deer, make the drive to nearby Johnston Canyon, where you can take in snow-capped alpine scenery straight out of a fairy tale.
Warm up after all this time spent outside: head to the Banff Upper Hot Springs. This exquisite spa has treated visitors to hot water and stunning views of the Rockies for over a century, and will continue to do so for a century to come.

Top 10 amazing scenery while backpacking in the Canadian Rockies
This is my list of top 10 backpacking views in the Canadian Rockies. I've been hiking for 28 years in the Rockies, so I had a lot choose from.
I jotted down all my favorite views that I have come across. I gave them all a ranking on a scale of 1-10. My top 10 all scored 8 or better. I then sorted them out based on the amount of work to reach each location. I sorted all the 10s, followed by the 9s and finally the 8s. I explain my ranking system at the end of the video.
I hope you enjoy this.
Hiking with my dog: 3 day 2 night Canadian Rockies backpacking trip, Glacier Lake, Banff May 2019
Hiking with my dog on the glacier lake trail in Banff National Park, Alberta Canada! Spending 2 nights at Glacier Lake! I have been to this lake 4 times now, always in the spring due to the low elevation giving favourable early season conditions! On this 3 day 2 night backpacking trip with my dog, I tried out a bunch of new backpacking gear I added to my loadout (which is getting really close to ultralight!) for 2019! Including the new custom Pet Palace I picked up from Cave Creek to add to the hammock setup, which means YES! We are hammock camping with the dog now! Wanda came along on this trip, as well as 5 of our friends, for an incredible weekend with amazing weather!
If you're interested in seeing all the gear Wanda and I brought out on this trip, you can check that out here! All our gear, including our final pack weights! (fully loaded with all consumables)

HIKING in the CANADIAN ROCKIES: CASCADE MOUNTAIN
SKIP INTRO: 0:35
Banff, Alberta has a few big name mountains in close proximity to the town and none stands out more than Cascade Mountain. Rising just short of 3,000m, it makes for an epic hike and one long day.
Cascade is the mountain you'll see in many iconic photos from Banff avenue and it doesn't disappoint. Give yourself a day and make it a reality to see the amazing views from above.
I've created this video with the intent to aid others with knowledge of the hike from Bow Falls up to the summit.
