Imagine taking your skis and Starbucks coffee, grabbing a train at Palliser square to Banff and riding the gondola up to Norquay.

Of course, surprise surprise, Parks Canada said nope.

Sigh.
Parks Canada has become the biggest wet blanket in recent times.

Add the outdoor games at lake Louise and now needing boat inspections just to take out a personal raft or kayak on Banff Lakes. I get the reasoning, but its also feels unrealistic and too hard to enforce to make it worth implementing except for on larger and motorized water craft.
