    Although Yoho National Park is the smallest among these national parks, it has my favorite, Moraine Lake, which ranks number one. The road may be closed in early October in winter, so you can't go in.

    This place is famous. If you are from the south, I suggest you go and see it. After all, it is a world of ice. Take a special snow car. It takes about 20 minutes to reach the glacier. It is sunny and windy on the glacier. Wear more clothes. The service area under the glacier is very good. There are food and drinks. You can see the distant view of the glacier while drinking coffee. It is very comfortable. There are also tourist commodities.

    Glacier National Park is the result of the merger of Canada's Waterton Lakes National Park (Alberta) and the United States' Glacier National Park (Montana), forming the world's first international peace park - Waterton Glacier International Peace Park. I was lucky enough to have traveled there by car, it was so huge
