Yoho National Park and Columbia Valley

On Monday the 4th of August I left Jasper direction Yoho National Park where I visited Canadas second highest waterfalls the naturale bridge and some hoodoos. Then I drove out of Yoho National Park to Golden where I decided to drive down the Colombia Valley to Radium where I spent the night.

Because I hadn't to cover a big distance the next day, I spent the afternoone on the beach of lake Invermere which had a refreshing temperature. After some troubles with the slidedoor of my van, I could finally drive to the natural Lucier Hotsprings and soak a little bit in the small pools.

The next day I headed to Kimberley a cute bavarian town. In Kimberley I booked a little mining tour which wasn't as exciting as expected but still a nice change.
After the mining tour I drove to Canbrooke which is the biggest town in the Colombia Valley.
