Jasper National Park in Canada, a park that is less famous than Banff, but has more beautiful scenery

🌟Highlights: The scenery along the way in Jasper Park is picturesque, and you can see deer walking on the road. It is necessary to stay for two days to fully appreciate it; Leaving Banff town and heading north, it takes about an hour and fifty minutes to reach the entrance of Jasper Scenic Area ⏳Play Time: The ticket is 42 Canadian dollars, and you can stay for 2 days; 📝Note tips: More than 90% of Jasper Scenic Area has no signal, set up navigation in advance, although there is only one road to Jasper Town, it is still necessary for people like me who are dependent on navigation; There are side roads on the road, all of which are hiking or sightseeing routes. Choose a few routes to walk, and you can see the lake view that you can't see on the side of the road, as well as the canyon and waterfall view, 🚉Transportation Strategy: From Banff Town to Jasper Park, Highway 1 turns to Highway 93, from south to north, one road leads directly to Jasper, the whole journey takes more than three hours; The Columbia Glacier is on the left front of the car two hours after entering the park. First, the sky starts to rain-rain and snow-snow, the road is icy, and the road is wet and slow If you want to feel the glacier up close, you can take the scenic bus in the scenic area; the ticket is more than 200 Canadian dollars; you can also hike; Because I have participated in the Alaska Glacier Hiking before, I did not choose this item this time, just stopped to look at the Columbia Glacier from a distance and continued to drive to Jasper Town About the RV camp: I didn't see the RV camp all the way at six o'clock in the evening, and found a public camp set up by the park, which does not provide water and electricity, and only parks where there are public toilets; Fortunately, this rest point is very close to the creek. First, find the septic tank of the toilet to drain the sewage in the car; then fill the water tank with creek water, and live without electricity and internet tonight; At the foot of the snow mountain, I don't want to use the generator to turn on the air conditioner without electricity, for fear that there will be no enough gasoline tomorrow; cold, I was awakened twice in the middle of the night; Later, I learned that there was a very, very good free RV camp near Jasper Town after driving for more than two hours that night. The camp has water and electricity and sewage supply, and there are public toilets and showers for use. I don't know if there is such a camp in Banff National Park. If not, learn from others as soon as possible; There are many hiking points and viewing points on the way to Jasper Town. You can see the lake view by randomly finding a parking point and hiking a few hundred meters; canyons, waterfalls; When you get to Jasper Town, a very small town, drive around and go to Maligne Lake immediately. It takes about 1:50 to get from Jasper to Maligne Lake. There is a place where the trees are all black. It should be the mark of a previous mountain fire (Maligne Lake will be introduced in the next issue)
