Lake Louise
Excellent freeriding on four mountain faces although slopes can get very busy. Facilities in Louise are a bit on the dull side, but overall with Banff as an alternative this is a great destination for all.
ON THE SLOPES Very good
OFF THE SLOPES Not bad
MONEY WISE Very expensive lodging and eating out but extremely good value.
