Thinking Out Loud

Cave and Basin

When I was a kid, my parents took a camping vacation every other year or so to Banff. I remember the Cave and Basin, because it was one of the few things they actually paid money to go see. And I think that was because you got to go swimming in the hot springs for the same price.

Now, there’s no swimming allowed because of the endangered snails that live in the water. Visitors are not even allowed to touch the water. (and it very, very tempting) Banff is the only place they have been found.
