Looks like things are going bad to worse around the Banff area. The images being posted on facebook and twitter make it look bad.
Highway 93 is closed between Lake Louise and Saskatchewan River Crossing, meaning no one is getting between Banff & Jasper today.
If you're in Banff, you're not getting to B.C. this afternoon. From the drivebc.ca website:
