    Why You Should Visit Baker Creek Mountain Resort This Winter

    January 21, 2022 /

    Outside our cozy cabin at Baker Creek Mountain Resort, the snow-covered forest was dark and still. Inside, my husband and I were curled up on a sofa in front of a wood stove sipping hot chocolate and watching the embers as they burned and crackled.

    Canmore Cave Tours and a Claustrophobic Caver
