I recall being there in early May of 2010 and there was less ice in the lake than now. It seems winter conditions are persisting longer into springtime these past few years.
Yes. This season is something else from different aspects. Covid, ultra late snow and quite brutal weather (think normal coast x 2). Will be interesting to see what happens next, but it could shape up to be really nice prime months July - September because of significantly lower # of visitors. I never go to Louise area in summer, this year I might.
One interesting update: The other day, as east Banff Park Gate re-opened, I stopped to inquire about Park Pass. My old one expired end of March and I could not get new one because of Covid. Parks employee told me "We are not functional yet". I asked what will happen if I park at Louise with expired pass, he just waved me off.
