Just home from camping in the forested area of Kananaskis - Loved it!!
We saw a grizzly bear, by the side of the road!!! We were driving down the road when a young woman stopped our car, saying she and her friend were walking their dog when they came across a grizzly. The young man scooped up the dog and she flagged us down. We passed the grizzly on the other side of the bike path they were on - less than 20 ft from us, eating buffalo berries. It was red tagged on the ear, to designate it was a "trouble" bear! We reported it to the Conservation Officer right away. It was only 1/2 mile from a campground & "Trading Post"!
We couldn't have campfires, due to the Fire Ban because of the fires in BC.
We really enjoyed our camping trip, and Susan is looking forward to returning next year to go again! We had marvellous weather - no rain except for 1 minute and clear skies for views of the stars at night. Didn't take a lot of pictures, but took important ones
We're having our Christmas dinner on Thursday, so have lots of baking & decorating to do :-)
