Author Topic:   Lake Louise...when does the ice melt? Steve83014 Administrator TUG Volunteer Posts: 941 From: Salt Lake City, Utah Own: Marriott's Sunset Pointe, Hilton Head Island, SC Registered: Dec 2000 posted 09-05-2002 07:48                I am interested in visiting the Banff area, and wondered when the ice melts in Lake Louise. From reading the reviews of the resorts in the area, someone mentioned that they were in Banff in June one year and the lake was still frozen over. Is this typical? Is the lake always still frozen in May? Any info would be great.

Lake Louise was not frozen over. In fact, I think my friends went canoeing in the lake. Make sure you layer your clothing because the temperature varies during the day. Try the info on this website. There are snowfall/rainfall statistics for Banff and Lake Louise at the bottom of the page. http://www.worldweb.com/parkscanada-banff/weather.html Mercedes IP: Logged Dori TUG Member Posts: 1025 From: Scarborough, Ontario, Canada , Owner at Harbour Inn and Resort Club, Brechin, Ontario and a Lowveld week Registered: Dec 2000 posted 09-07-2002 19:47                Steve, if you do decide to go, make sure you visit Moraine Lake. We found it to be the most beautiful sight we have ever seen. I think it is about 40 minutes farther than Lake Louise.

Moraine is about 11km (5-6 miles) up this other road. "BE SURE" you DO, go see Moraine lake....It's the most beautiful spot you might ever see! ------------------ Greg IP: Logged kennedy TUG Member Posts: 67 From: Calgary, Alberta , Canada Registered: Dec 2000 posted 09-08-2002 11:41                The ice is usually off the lake and surrounding trails in May. Most years it would melt by early to mid May, but in the rare bad year, it might get as late as the first bit of June.

Looking for somewhere in Canada to do a family fishing trip that might have some "timeshare" comforts. Any suggestions would be welcome. Thanks, gloria IP: Logged
