• Kicking Horse Pass - Currently, the journey is through Kicking Horse Pass. Historically, the Kootenay people traversed this pass to reach Banff. But how did it acquire the name “Kicking Horse”?

• Sherbrooke Lake Trailhead - Approaching soon is a hiking trail leading to Sherbrooke Lake. This hidden gem is rarely crowded and nestled at the base of two mountains, offering stunning views! The trail is six miles long and takes at least two hours to complete, but it’s a must for those seeking tranquility!

• Lower Spiral Tunnel Viewpoint - Up next is the Spiral Tunnel Viewpoint. In the 1880s, Canadian Prime Minister John MacDonald and the Canadian Pacific Railway faced significant challenges with the Rocky Mountains and the promise of a transcontinental railway. The question was, how to get a steam-powered train with about 20 cars over mountains 10,000 feet high? MacDonald assured his people it would be done, and the Railway company had to find a solution.

• Takakkaw Falls - Ahead, there’s an option to detour to Takakkaw Falls. The road is open only from July to September. The detour takes about 15 minutes each way, but it’s definitely worth it. Takakkaw Falls stands at an impressive 1,200 feet, and visitors can get remarkably close to this cascade!

• Wapta Mountain - After the next curve, the summit of Wapta Mountain will be visible. This peak reaches 9,114 feet. Clergyman James Outram and his friend J.H. Scattergood, with a Swiss guide, first ascended Wapta in 1901. While most mountains here have European names, this one has a First Nations name. Do you recall what “wapta” means in the Nakoda language?

• Burgess Shale - To the right stands Mount Field, home to one of Canada’s most significant paleontological discoveries. It’s the Burgess Shale, a vast expanse of sedimentary shale rich with fossils!

• Natural Bridge - A captivating overlook is just ahead. Here, a natural rock bridge spans the Kicking Horse River. How did this Natural Bridge form? The answer lies with the Kicking Horse River. It flowed on flatter terrain near the town of Field, slow and gentle. But around here, the river begins a downhill journey to merge with the Amiskwi River. Gravity accelerates its flow, making it faster and a bit rougher.

• Emerald Lake - Just ahead is the final stop on this tour: Emerald Lake! The tour concludes with someone it began with: Tom Wilson. Wilson is credited as the first European settler to see this stunning glacial lake. He even named it! And this time, historians are confident he is truthful about the discovery.
