About this audio guide
This guide to Lake Agnes Tea House above Lake Louise in Banff National Park follows the daily commute of the staff who climb up to open it every summer morning, with no road ever reaching the door. It traces the tea house back to its founding in nineteen oh one by the Canadian Pacific Railway, and to the hikers who now turn that same climb into their own challenge, scrambling on toward Big Beehive or linking it with the Plain of Six Glaciers. Order a pot by the window and see who is working that day.
