Rockies continued

All of the animal photos were taken as we drove along, sometime we spot them in the woods and turn around, some come out and stand near the road and the long horn sheep will walk right down the road and pay no attention to humans or cars. Those who hike the trails see many more animals.

We stayed at the campground in Lake Louis last night, the tenting section is surrounded with an electric fence to discourage the grizzly bear, they can destroy tents if they want in. The section for hard sided trailers and motorhomes have no fence, one strolled through this morning. As we checked in this evening at the Banff campground they warned they had bears.


Spotted this grizzly about 40 feet off the road eating something in the grass, there was water in a ditch between us so felt kind of safe, he paid no attention to me.


Aqua colored glacial lake


This girl walked into this icy water in her sandals, asked if I could take her photo, said yes, then boyfriend wanted in the picture. Don't know how they could stand in that icy water.
