About this view
A live cam over Main Street in Canmore, a mountain town in the Bow Valley just outside Banff National Park. The street runs straight at the mountains: the Three Sisters, the trio of peaks that stand in for Canmore on every postcard, close the view.
It is a walking street of cafés, gear shops and patios, so the frame is people on foot most of the day: hikers in the morning, families in the afternoon, the evening crowd in summer. Snow changes everything from November, and the peaks hold it into June.
Mornings show the peaks at their sharpest (UTC−7, −6 in summer); the light on the Three Sisters at sunset is the reason people stop mid-street. Canmore hosted the Nordic events of the 1988 Winter Olympics, and the trails still draw skiers every winter.
