Rockies--- The World's Playground

The Rocky Mountains-250,000 square miles of national parks between Calgary and Vancouver will presently be attracting hosta of tourists from all over this continent and the world when the seven Canadian Pacific Railway bungalowa and the Emerald Lake Chalet open in mid-June. It is a short season but a merry one, from June 15 to September 15. But in those three months or less there is packed a world of delight and beauty hardly to be equalled anywhere else. The Mountains are then at the peak of their summer splendor, the summits capped with snow, the Alpine meadows aglow with flowers, the lakes mirroring the heights and colored with all the hues of an artist's palette. Those are the days of the great outdoors, for hiking, trail riding, moun- tain climbing, fishing and motoring in the heart of the Rockies over first-class roads. The extraordinary beauty of the scenery, the exhil arating air, the ever-changing scenes and coloration are a delight that none will forget and all will long to repent. The bungalow camps dotted over this vast expanse in the heart of the mountains, are Castle Moun- tain, Radium Hot Springs, Mt. Assiniboine, Moraine Lake, Lake O'Hara, Wapta, Yobo and the Emerald Lake Chalet. Located on or near the maha line of the Canadian Pacific Railway with two luxurious hotein, Banff Springs and Chateau Lake Louise as centres, they are all easy of access. The illustration shows a typical bungalow camp scone and indicates why these places are so popular.
