Into Canada

Because we do not have constant access to wifi, I will post up-to-date travels when possible.  We have spent the last two days near or crossing the Canadian Rockies.  Last two nights were in Banff CA and tonight we are in McBride CA.  Banff reminded me so much of Gatlinburg TN.  McBride is just the opposite.  Great traveling day spent mostly on Icefields Parkway.  Saw numerous glaciers and 7 bears, 3 mountain goats (I think) and 4 moose.  Amazing.  Roads were pretty good overall.  Lots of snow on the mountains and streams were moving at a very rapid pace.  Hope to make it to Dawson Creek in the next 2 days.

Bob and BJ on the Icefields Parkway...Gorgeous
These 3 cubs are included in the 7 bears we saw today.  Hard to pull a 42 footer with toad over to gawk.
Cave Basin National Park.  The beginning of Canada's park system.
I was driving and took the wrong road.  Almost ended up in downtown Calgary.
Bow Falls in Banff.  Part of Banff National Park.
