Thanks everyone. I hope I can convince a buddy or two on doing this. Unfortunately, my touring buddy for the past couple of years (we get along well) might not be interested. He is more into the town thing. Hopefully if I can put together a low mileage / low stress itinarary, I can convince him.

I noticed there is a train track from Calgary to Baniff. Is that a people train? Schedule? Cost? Just thinking of alternatives.

That trip would probably actually be more like two days for me by bicycle. I am comfortable with about 60 miles (with the altitude maybe a little less). After that I start getting cranky.
