((CHEAP TRAVEL ALERT)) Hello, Banff, Alberta! Thanks to the Canadian Dollar, which is still about 25% cheaper than it was just five years ago. Your lift tickets in the stunning Canadian Rockies will run you less than $80 US, a steal compared to similar slopes in Utah and Colorado. Hotel prices follow suit, with wintertime rates in decent spots well under a C-note a night. Why you should go this year: The loonie has been gradually bouncing back, so best to get the discounts now while you can. The skiing here is just as good as you’ll find in spots like Aspen, Park City, or Steamboat, and when prices here eventually catch up the epic Canadian Rockies snow weekend will be a thing of the past. In the summertime, campsites run about $8 per person per night, a small price to pay to wake up every morning to some of the most gobsmacking mountain scenery on planet Earth. #travel #traveldeal #traveler #banff #banffnationalpark #canada #canadian #canadianrockies #mountains #bucketlist #awesome #landscape #skiing #outdoors #camping #campinglife
