I guess I was getting ahead of myself an didn't know it! I found this draft blog posting complete with photos, sitting unused. It is mostly just some scenic photos from around the Lake Louise area - including some bears!
Above and below are two shots of Bow Lake, taken from near Num Ti Jah lodge.

These shots are from the Saskatchewan Crossing area; where the north Saskatchewan river crosses the Icefields Parkway (Hwy 93).


Waterfowl Lake, about 45km north of Lake Louise.


A very nice Parks Canada sign - that has been laying on the ground, apparently for several years now! Welcome to Overflow Camping!

Near Castle Mountain, between Banff and Lake Louise.
Grizzly bear grazing on the CP rail mainline - west of Lake Louise.
The spilled grain along the rails is now sprouting, which attracts the wildlife to the tracks. Fortunately, the bears usually get off the rails when a train approaches ...
Young raven finding shelter in an old shed.
Video of bear grazing on grain growing between the rails.



Next post - off to the Merritt Mountain Music Festival in Merritt, BC.
