Cold when we woke, no mosquitos here, yeah!
3 kms into day we seen a bear cool 9 am.
a little black bear crossing the road, Chris had opportunity to shoot a photo, but blew it fumbling with camera, Bear disapeared into bush.
took pics with giant Hummer bus!!
We seen a huge grizzly bear, this time in plain view for awhile, Kathy took several pics, What a sight !!!
Ice Passage highway has the most beautiful mountains yet, road rises with them instead of being in the valley.
Immense visions on stone and ice surround whole periphery. giant glaciers, peaks and clouds,
at times driving above clouds.
Ice blue lakes and fast movong rivers, whose colour alone screams cold.
Visit Sunwopta Falls, very powerfull , shooting out of crevais into rock wall wearing out scoop in stone.
Shorty after we see mountain billy goats eating arouind river, and effortlessly wandering about the rock wall, that is near vertical.
Head to Miette Hot Springs where we swim again.
Kathy hits showers , Chris stays in for awhile longer, and while on the way to showers, witnesses little girl slip and hit head hard enough to be knocked out, and alerts lifeguard.
She comes to, so I hit the showers.
Go to hang towel, and man in ate 40's passes out, and hits the ground with eerie loud slap of bareskin, and overweight on wet tile floor, again has to alert lifeguard, for there is no other witness but the mans young son, who to no avail is slapping PAPA's face.
He comes to and, shaken, I head outside wherea young boy in sandals trips, hands knees and face into stone parking lot. WHOA too crazy ,,,tooo much
head for trruck to get a grip, and I am surrounded by 10-12 billy goats.
( got pics_)!!
Ryder and Kathy come out from buiding, oblivious to all this, to find me white faced and shaken.
I', m ready to get the hell out of here.
Destination, Edmonton
