We had company over Christmas so on Boxing Day (December 26) we did a quick trip to the Nakiska ski hill area in Kananaskis Country. We ended up at the Delta Lodge at Kananaskis, didn't actually go to the ski hill (where the 1988 Olympics skiing happened). Wondered around the hotel and shops area and some of the trails in the area.
Heading out of Calgary on the Transcanada Highway.
