Any of those would be fine. There is so much to see in the mountains that
I wouldn't want to have to rush people through it. As it stands now, I
have scheduled a day to get from Golden to Banff, and that's only 95 miles,
and the following day is Banff to Calgary which is only 70 miles, so there
is lots of time for sightseeing.
<p>A trip up the Ice fields would probably be a good idea, as that's a
spectacular road. Emerald lake is a good idea, as would a visit to Takakkaw
falls at Field. Perhaps we should set up "base camp" at Banff and suggest
day drives form there, as there are many places and things to do that are
within an easy drive of Banff.
<p>Barry, how many rooms did you block off?

<font size=-1>Bob, Charlie and I
have been been talking this over and we feel that we could leave some flexibility
in the extra day between Vernon and Calgary for people to make some choices
in what they would like to do on the extra day. Some of the choices could
be:</font><font size=-1>1. Extra day in the valley visiting some of the
Wineries</font><font size=-1>2. A trip up Silver Star Mountain in Vernon
to ride up the chair lift and bike down</font><font size=-1>3. A day trip
on a house boat on Shuswap Lake</font><font size=-1>4. A visit to the Large
Hydro Electric Dam in Revelstoke</font><font size=-1>5. A trip to Emerald
Lake or up to the Columbia Ice Fields for a ride on the glacier</font><font size=-1>6.
An extra day in the Banff/ Lake Louise area.</font><font size=-1>I would
appreciate some feed back on this as I am an independent SOB and as long
as we meet in Calgary on the agreed upon day I feel some flexibility is
permitted. The Penticton and Vernon dates are firm, however, as hotel rooms
have been blocked out.</font><font size=-1>Craig, as you will be picking
up the group in Golden, do you have any ideas from Golden to Calgary?</font>
