Last-minute Banff & Jasper trip 22-25 May

We are planning a last-minute trip to Banff and Jasper next week. This will be our first time visiting Alberta, and we will be traveling from Seattle.

I realize this is a short trip, and given the snow/seasonal conditions, we probably won’t be able to do much hiking. The goal is mainly sightseeing, relaxing, and enjoying the scenery.

I would love some honest feedback:

  1. Does it make sense to try to visit both Banff and Jasper on a short trip, or would we be better off focusing on just one?
  2. If you recommend only one, which would you choose for a first-time visit?
