British Columbia

We stayed in some beautiful areas in British Columbia.  We stayed by Revelstoke National Park and from there drove through the Canadian version of Glacier National Park along the Trans Canadian Highway.  The highway was only two lanes with lots of traffic and not a lot of passing lanes and lots of steep ups and downs.  We saw a large bear cross the road in front of a lot of traffic.    We also saw a mountain goat along the way up on the mountainside close to the road.  It was one of the white shaggy looking goats.  We were traveling too fast for me to get a picture and no place to pull over --

We stayed in Radium Hot Springs at a very nice RV park where I took this picture.  We had nice mountain views and a cement patio with a gas grill to use.  Toward evening it got very hazy from all the forest fires burning in the province.

The picture of the smoke is actually a mountain top on fire that we passed a few miles across the border in Idaho.  We stayed in Coeur D'Alene, Idaho for a few days but it was so brown and dry there that we left.  It looked like one spark would cause an explosion of fire.  We are now in Libby, Montana and its a little greener but still hazy from the fires in Idaho.
