After the efforts of the Icefield Parkway we made two exciting rest days in Lake Louise.
On the second day of the tour we passed the Columbia Icefield and Sunwapta Pass in strong winds.
Our first "real" stage of the day consisted of the climb towards Sunwapta Pass on the Icefield Parkway.
The journey took a very long time, but worked out amazingly well!
Soon the time will come and we will start this year's summer vacation in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Since we want to be on the road with our tandem, we are currently looking back on almost a year of preparation!
After the onset of winter a week ago, we wanted to go once again with the tandem in the mountains in beautiful weather, before the passes are definitely closed due to winter closure.
The Furka Pass was due to the past warm days already free of snow again, at the Gotthard Pass but there was still "enough" snow on the old pass road ... Who loves his bike, who pushes :-)
We were not able to do our summer vacation tour this year until September.
Since we received too few registrations for the tandem club tour over the Brünig and the grosse Scheidegg, we converted the first two days of our tour to a tandem club tour.
Afterwards we drove "alone" through the Jura and along the Ain to Lyon.
Very strenuous route to Adelboden.
Very nice route over the Glaubenberg pass.
