An easy walk up to Grassi Lakes with Carbon and her parents.
Soooo nice that the smoke cleared out and we can see the mountains again. It has been so long since we've had such a clear day that I had forgotten how great the mountains look; they seemed new again.
Then a guided sightseeing float trip down part of the Bow River with Carbon and Carbon's dad, from below Bow Falls to about 7 or 8 km downstream, pulling out along the golf course road. Fun to see the various mountains and the hoodoos from a different perspective, and great to scope out the river for our own future paddle from Banff to Canmore. Barely a Class I rapid here or there, there might be one little section or two where you could try to make a Class II of it and barely make a splash by hitting it hard in just the right spot; you're biggest challenge would be avoiding shallow spots. Would be a beautiful trip. There are really nice, calm put-ins on gentle beach just below the public parking at Bow Falls.
