The town of Jasper is nestled in a small valley surrounded by mountains.  Prices are way up.  Hotels in Jasper cost 3 times as much, and are nearly sold out.  We've been traveling without hotel reservations, just finding a place each night, but we almost didn't get a room here.  After we arrived, we booked 2 nights here and also one night in Banff, just to be safe.  We had hoped to miss the busy season, but moved our trip up by 2 weeks to avoid the risk of snow, and ended up here during the very busy week leading into the holiday weekend before school starts.  Doh!  Weather has been warm.  65-70 during the day.  50 overnight.  I guess snow wasn't so likely after all...
