At last a campsite with WIFI. Today's trek was 280 miles through the breathtaking Canadian Rockies from Banff National Park to Jasper NP, with a stop at the Columbia Ice Fields for an Ice Buggy ride to the Athabasca Glacier. Wildlife was plentiful - we dodged herds of mountain goats, saw a grizzly bear and several elk.
