We had a wonderful 3-hour hike with Isla right after we arrived in Canmore. It was supposed to rain, and Jacob was nice enough to call us and offer to rebook. We had a tight schedule the rest of our trip and decided to risk it. The weather turned out to be beautiful! We were given some choices of where to go which took into account how muddy the trails might be (much appreciated). We ended up doing an out and back to an old mining town, and it was a lovely trail with beautiful views. Isla was very knowledgeable and gave us information about the history, area wildlife, and plants/trees as we walked. She also had a great recommendation for a beer garden to check out after we finished. I would love to come back and try another hike in the future!
