More Information….
Where is Jasper
Jasper lies at the very north end of Jasper National Park, and the town of Jasper is within the park itself. To the north is Willmore Wilderness Park, and to the south is Banff National Park. Access to Jasper is from either the city of Edmonton, which is a 3.5-hour drive to the east, or a 4.5-hour drive from Calgary along the tremendously scenic Banff/Jasper corridor (Highway 93).
How challenging will the hiking be? PLEASE READ, IMPORTANT!
Hiking? Who said anything about hiking? Yes, we will be walking to some locations. The distances are typically no more than 1 km or so. However, all locations will require a walk, including hills. If you have mobility problems, this is probably not your trip.
What camera gear should I bring?
The following are some recommendations. Generally, we will be focusing primarily on landscape photography but may encounter some wildlife shooting opportunities. Ideally, since we will be walking throughout the day and carrying our gear, equipment should be kept to a minimum. Here is a list of what we typically carry in the field. A more detailed "what to bring" list will be sent to you before the workshop. If you shoot wildlife and own or use a considerable lens, you are welcome to bring it.
