Canada West Assistant Rep Jim Thompson | Published on 9/24/2024

Roar in the Rockies! 

 


 

Let’s hear those Astons stretch their legs!  Join us this fall for a fun-filled, spirited drive into the Alberta Rocky Mountains at one of the most beautiful times of the year.  This day promises to provide spectacular scenery, memorable locations, and a chance to meet and socialize with other club members.  The leaves will be turning colour, and of course, the cars are sure to impress. 

 

Sept 7th, 2024 (tentative itinerary)

 

8:00 AM Coffee and light breakfast – location to be finalized, but likely Aston Martin Calgary

9:30 AM Drive secondary highways to Banff

12:00 PM Lunch at Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, parking pre-arranged, private room

2:00 PM Drive TransCanada Highway 1 and Highway 40 through Kananaskis Provincial Park

3:30 PM Arrive at Pomeroy Kananaskis Mountain Lodge, underground secure parking pre-arranged, block of rooms reserved at a group rate

Sept 8th, 2024

 

8:00 AM Morning at your leisure, but highly recommend booking the Nordic Spa on site or a short hike

12:00 PM Group disperses, or option to drive Highway 93 to Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge (anyone joining to make their own arrangements, but could drive up together!)

 

Cost is estimated at $1200 per couple.  Memories could be priceless?  There are minimum numbers needed to secure our bookings and make this day happen – so we kindly ask that you act quickly to secure your spot!  For questions, or instructions to confirm your attendance, please contact AMOC Assistant Rep Jim at jim_thompson@shaw.ca .

 

(p.s. did you know that the southern part of Highway 40 in Kananaskis is the highest paved road in Canada?)
