The Three Sisters mountain range, captured beautifully from the vantage point of A Bear & Bison Inn in Canmore, Alberta, is a breathtaking and iconic sight that defines the spirit of the Canadian Rockies. With its rustic elegance and sweeping views, the inn’s camera offers a serene window into one of Alberta’s most beloved panoramas.

Located just a few minutes from downtown Canmore, A Bear & Bison Inn is perched at an ideal elevation, providing unobstructed views of the towering peaks known as the Three Sisters: Big Sister (Faith), Middle Sister (Charity), and Little Sister (Hope). These majestic mountains rise dramatically above the Bow Valley and are among the most photographed natural landmarks in the region. Through the livecam, guests and online viewers alike can experience their grandeur any time of day, whether it’s during a morning mist, a sun-drenched afternoon, or a soft glowing sunset.

This view is not just a visual treat: it’s a connection to the history and heritage of the Canadian Rockies. The Three Sisters got their name in the 1880s when a surveyor saw the peaks shrouded in white snowcaps and likened them to veiled nuns. Today, they are a symbol of Canmore’s identity, appearing in artwork, branding, and local storytelling.

What makes the view from A Bear & Bison Inn unique is its balance of rugged nature and peaceful comfort. Nestled in a quiet residential area, the inn offers a retreat for travelers seeking luxury, tranquility, and nature all in one. From the camera, you can also spot parts of the town’s scenic surroundings – rooftops, tree-lined paths, and glimpses of local wildlife.

For outdoor enthusiasts, the live view serves as a real-time weather check before setting out on nearby trails, such as the Three Sisters Pathway or the Policeman’s Creek Boardwalk. For armchair travelers, it’s simply a perfect way to immerse in the Rockies’ splendor without leaving home.

Each season brings a new personality to the Three Sisters. In winter, the snow-covered peaks glow under a cold, clear sky. Spring brings thawing streams and green slopes. Summer unveils the full drama of the rock faces under blue skies. Autumn, with its golden larches and crisp air, adds a warm palette that complements the rugged stone.
