Most of our skiing was done at Lake Louise (a little ways west of Banff). It has (had) a little more advanced/expert terrain than did the area near Banff (I've forgot- ten the name). We skied 3 days at Lake Louise, 1 day at Banff, then drove up to Jasper (Marmot Basin) for another 2 days, then back home. As far as lodging goes, we stayed at a place called the Lake Louise Chalet (I think) in the village of Lake Loiuse, a short shuttle bus ride from the lifts. I think that the Lake Louise Chateau may be open in the winter now, tho I don't know what they charge (we were looking for cheap). Road conditions are variable, depending on when the last snowfall was, etc.
