Columbia Icefield in Jasper National Park in Alberta, Canada











The Canadian Rockies





Alberta, Canada


We decided to drive into Alberta last night.  It was about an hour before dusk.  This is what we saw.



 This is a herd of Elk.  Ignoring all of us and carrying on.






 A set of twin bear cubs.  They are on an adventure.  Scroll down and see what they are after.



 Their MAMA!!!!!






This bear was walking along behind the guardrail.  I saw him, stopped in the middle of the road, told T. to get the camera, rolled down my window and as soon as I did he smelled us and stood right up checking us out.

Prince George, Canada

 Okay, it did not start out as a very exciting day so we took more pictures of scenery, water, reflections of mountains in the water and the roads.  This is Prince George, British Colombia, Canada though!













This is other scenery on the Cassiers Highway

 Great Highway!!!  This was the good part of it.
 The Canadian Rockies
 Gorgeous jade water!

 A cave way up there!
 They have a LOT of water.....flooding and running fast!
 Reflection of the mountains in the lake.
 They have wooden bridges up there.
 NO shoulders on this highway!
Just a PRETTY picture!
