My wife and I visited Jasper last summer as day hikers.
As day hikers, we carried only a light knapsack to hold lunch and other essentials.
Most day hikers will complete the trip in between 10 and 20 hours.
There are several trails for day hikers, some of which are strenuous.
Hundreds of day hikers are heading up, undaunted by the clouds.
The park is used by picnickers, day hikers, and for mountain biking.
Also we get a fair number of day hikers and the like.
Shuttle buses are aimed at wildlife watchers and day hikers.
What I didn't see much of, though, were likely places to find bed and board for day hikers.
At first there were day hikers swarming all over the trail, but after a few miles they gradually thinned out.
