FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Calgary, AB 11/11/10 – Lise Pin proudly announces the creation of the web site banff-alberta.net to provide a free online resource for travel planning to Banff National Park and the Canadian Rockies. “I wanted to provide a travel planning resource online because it can be tedious using the index pages at the back of a book in a travel guide. Flipping back and forth to the index while you try to whittle down where you want to go and decide what you want to see, can completely fatigue a person. Eventually, you get completely lost and your entire book has little sticky notes marking pages,” says Lise Pin, a writer based out of Calgary. “An online resource gets you to what you want to read with a simple click.”
