"Jasper: Beer, Bears, and Beautiful Glaciers"


I took that line from the following very entertaining travel blog. Greg and Kim, two "Gap Year" students from the UK were winners of a contest, earning them the right to be contestants in "Challenge Canada". We had the pleasure of hosting them to their Jasper Challenges here earlier this month. Check out their great blog on Jasper here: http://blogs.gapyear.com/index.php?op=vt&t=4469&u=

An excerpt from a Thank You note to Currie's Guided Fishing, Jasper



From: Chris Ellis

Subject: Thank You!!!

Dear Currie's,
I wanted to thank you for the great trip my son and I had on our half day trout fishing trip on Friday July 22, 2008. Derrick was our guide and was a great host for us. He was a delight to be around and was loaded with all the right information to any question that we asked. He was great with my seventeen year old and made it a great day for the both of us.

Please give Derrick a pat on the back from Ryan and Chris. We had a great time. If we are ever up in Jasper again Currie's Guiding will be our first call without even thinking about the competition.
Thanks for the great time,
Chris Ellis

Chasing Clean Air leads her to Jasper!


Clean Air Blogger, Donna Barnett from Los Angeles came to Jasper this week to take a breath of our fresh Rocky Mountain air. Donna blogs about all her travels to clean air destinations and focuses on sustainability in those areas. I had the pleasure of meeting her yesterday and she raved about Jasper, Rocky Mountaineer, The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge, Maligne Canyon, Evild Dave's Restaurant (recent winner of a Jasper Environmental Stewardship award) and most of all - the people here in Jasper. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw her pick up from smoggy LA and start breathing easier up here in Jasper permanently! Please check out her blog at: http://www.chasingcleanair.com/chasing_clean_air/2008/08/welcome-to-jasp.html
