A beautiful (albeit a bit cloudy) saturday afternoon, so we decided to go for a hike. We went to the remains of an old mining town called Bankhead and checked out a bit of Alberta's history. This is only the lower area. We haven't done the upper yet.

After our time in Bankhead, we continued on to Lake Minnewanka for lunch. A popular and somewhat busy tourist spot, but we managed to scramble down some rocks into an area where we were mostly left alone and able to enjoy a quiet meal.
