Capped at 10,000 residents, limited commercial land development and residents must show a “need to reside”. That is the world of the town of Banff. It is still quite the tourist trap though with shop after shop with T-shirts, postcards, and trinkets. I couldn’t pass it all up. We tried some of the local ice cream and some locally made chocolates …pretty tasty. I bought a bottle of BC, Okanagan Valley Chardonnay. I didn’t know they even made wine here… I will let you know how that is.
