We took the Banff Gondola up the mountainside to get a better view of our surroundings. Here's the view of the Bow River valley.
Toddlers Tycho (L) and Cassie (R) fuel up for the upcoming hike across to an adjacent peak.
Nice corpuscular rays from the Sun through the clouds.
More sunbeams.

Here's one of the gondolae (gondolas?).

Same, with no zoom.
Great view of Banff.
