final van leaving at midnight). They leave the
Chateau Lake Louise every two hours from 5 AM to 7PM.
They are extending a ten percent discount to SOSP attendees ( $45
Canadian one way and $86.40 Canadian both ways. These prices include
taxes.); just tell them when you reserve that you're attending SOSP.
They will need a credit card number to take your reservation.
You should book with them in advance. Even though they run a
regular schedule, given the number of us who may be using them, they
may not have the capacity to take you in the shuttle that leaves
closest after you arrive. You can call them at (888) 762-8754 or
