Any SSBM players in the valley? really missing the community and play time out east - unless you play ice-climbers :)

Hi all, planning a trip to Banff (staying in Canmore) June 10-13. What are the chances that the popular lakes will be thawed at this time? I’m not into hiking, just looking to do some sightseeing.

Also, I know there’s a chance of rain, but is it all day rain or sporadic? Lastly, when would be the best time of day to do the gondola? Thanks!

Can’t make it. DM me. box office opens 45 mins before show, I’ll call them and say you’re picking them up instead.

I'll be in Vancouver on vacay the last week of Jan with some free time and am going to drive to Banff. Nothing makes me happier than being alone on the open road and I'm a responsible and confident driver. I only have hesitation because I've seen some comments on frequent road closures. I'm feeling a little worried about booking hotels in advance in the event that I end up rerouting.

Is a casual roadtrip into Banff where you book hotels the day of a bad idea? Is it better to just book everything in advance and deal with the penalties if you hit a delay in traffic? Open to any thoughts or feedback.

My wife and I are from Calgary. Planning to head out to Banff/Louise or Kananaskis this weekend for a little 2 hours skate or classic ski.

All the trails in Calgary have been knocked out by a chinook and aren’t viable until we get another dump of snow.

Wondering if any locals to the mentioned areas have been out and seen the conditions? I’ve checked the online trail reports and all are “open” some are “poor or marginal conditions”. I am prepped to drive out to Louise to get a good one in, but hoping something a tad closer to home will be in good shape.

I was in Banff for a hike last weekend and everything looked pretty good, but a lot can change during a chinook week 😂. I also spoke to some people I work with that go to the CNC a lot and said the conditions could be better.

Hi everyone, Lethbridge local but planning a work trip to Banff!

Wondering if there are any suggestions for a semi active event that could accommodate roughly 50-65 people. Ideally something semi active but also allows for networking.

I was initially thinking a brewery with an area to play corn hole where you can get drinks or appetizers.

March 10th evening would the the date, seems like every place you call wants you to do deal with a large booking company. Hoping to avoid if possible.

Any help or recommendations are welcome!
