Columbia Icefield and Rafting on the Athabasca River

 Husband M's sisters had fun touring the Jasper area in western Canada a few weeks ago. Jasper is recovering from the 2024 wildfires.

It's good to see the Columbia ice fields again. I took many kids into this area on cross country skis on field trips. . We didn't go on the ice though.

We have fond memories of visiting that area years ago. :)

I didn't go rafting, but everything else looks like I remember it when I visited the area back in 2012. Well maybe the glacier is a bit smaller than I remember it. Thanks for reminding me off some good memories.
