When are the wild roses in bloom in Alberta?
Usually late May to early August, you'll see them most as you are out hiking. Adopted as our official emblem flower since 1930, sometimes called the Prickly Rose.
Been an interesting post to read, and I concur with others, YES it might cost a little more to travel within Canada than what you are used to in many parts of the USA, but you will miss out on some of the most majestic scenery and helpful kind people in the world if you let that stop you!
Likewise we would have done the same with your NYC, LA, San Fran, San Diego and others, if we'd let the higher costs to visit stop us, and that would have been a mortal sin in our books :)
Ya'll come back ya hear
