Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Challenge of the Mountains: The Canadian Rockies, the Playground of America Banff Hot Springs possess wonderful curative properties for rheumatic and kindred ailments. There are several important springs, the best known of these being the Cave and Basin, where the best of bathing facilities are afforded. The Cave is reached by a delightful drive of about a mile along a winding, pine bordered road up the valley of the Bow River to the base of Sulphur Mountain. The Cave itself is covered in by a natural roof of rock and is fed by water from the springs further up the mountains. The curious deposits of sulphur about its roof make it well worth a visit. The temperature of the water in the adjoining natural basin where the bathers congregate, is degrees Fahrenheit. Connected with the Banff Springs Hotel there are also fine bathing facilities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author grew up in the Canadian Rockies and has been exploring them since she was a child. The Canadian Rockies are one of the world's most popular tourist destinations, with four million visitors annually. Covered in detail here are all the great parks of Alberta and British Columbia. Easily accessible adventures include walking, hiking, mountain biking, fishing, boating, horseback riding, skiing and wildlife viewing -- with some of the most spectacular animals in North America. Where else can you spend the morning hiking through spectacular wilderness and by afternoon enjoy high tea in one of the grand hotels? The guide is filled with inside information on how to avoid the tourist traps and where to find the special places off the beaten path that the tourists don't know about; the most worthwhile outdoor adventures and indoor activities; the hotels and restaurants at all price levels that are the very best; plus tips on places to avoid. Each chapter covers transportation to and around the park, where to stay and eat, attractions and shopping, plus adventures, from drives to day hikes, rafting to cycling. Competing guides focus on the standard tourist sites (where the crowds can ruin your experience), while we take you to the lesser-known spots (restaurants, lodges, hiking paths), which are often more rewarding. We travel to grow - our Adventure Guides show you how. Experience the places you visit more directly, freshly, intensely than you would otherwise - sometimes best done on foot, in a canoe, or through cultural adventures like art courses, cooking classes, learning the language, meeting the people, joining in the festivals and celebrations. This can make your trip life-changing, unforgettable. All of the detailed information you need is here about the hotels, restaurants, shopping, sightseeing. But we also lead you to new discoveries, turning corners you haven't turned before, helping you to interact with the world in new ways. That's what makes our Adventure Guides unique. This guide covers British Columbia's amazing Yoho and Kootenay National Parks. The Canadian Rockies see about four million visitors annually. Easily accessible adventures include walking, hiking and backpacking; mountain biking and bicycle touring; fishing, boating and rafting; horseback riding; skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing; and so much more. This is a guide for places to stay and eat, sights, activities, festivals - written by a lifelong resident of the Canadian Rockies.
