https://youtu.be/CtsDMR6P_0E This video guides you through 20 most visited sites in Banff, Jasper and Yoho National Parks. If you are on a tight schedule, this planning guide would save you time and effort. First we ranked these 20 sites in this order: Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Banff Gondola & Sulphur Mt, Emerald Lake, Maligne Lake & Spirit Island, Johnston Canyon, Athabasca Glacier, Columbia Icefield Skywalk, Peyto Lake, Lake Louise Gondola, Maligne Canyon, Athabasca Fall, Bow Falls, Crowfoot Glacier, Bow Lake, Natural Bridges, Hoodoo, Spiral Tunnel, Surprise Corner, Medicine Lake. This ranking considers many factors such as the number of visitors, how photographers ranked the sceneries, online interests as well as the opinions of local experts.
Obviously you can’t visit all 20 in one day. How do you efficiently organize your schedule or fit in more places if you have limited time? With the ranking of the 20 attractions, we provided a table showing the approximate time that is needed to just have a quick visit, a moderate amount or much longer time to spend. We also provided an overall map showing both the 20 attractions as well as a few towns such as Banff Town, Jasper Town, Lake Louise Village and Field that you may stay. Of course in the video, before representing each attraction we will show the magnified local map for each place.
How you organize your trip also depends on where you are going to stay and you may have many options. To give you an idea how to organize, for your reference, how our tour package was organized can be seen from our other shorter videos with one video per day for most days.

In the following video, we will explain how the scattering and absorption can shift the light spectrum, changing the color of the water:
