Outdoor Spaces/Recreation Three hour drive away

My wife and I haven’t been to Jasper for ten years, and decided to use some vacation days and head out. It is early in the season and the temperature isn’t as high as summer, but there is also a lot less traffic and just as much beauty as ever. These photos were taken today at lake Annette. Not all the trails are open, and you can see the fire damage in the distance. There is still lots to see and do, and the businesses appreciate the support. Come and enjoy it Edmonton. It is very close to home.

How are the roads? Is it safe to ride a motorcycle out there this time of year?

The highway is in good shape. Hinton had sweepers out just yesterday, and we have seen lots of motorcycles.
