Aug 5--Banff, AB

On the road to Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. Foggy, rainy day, but the scenery is still breath-taking.
And no, that's not a tunnel or a bridge. It's a bear crossing. The Canadian government is making these crossings over the highway, so that wildlife can cross the highway without mixing with auto traffic. The sides of the highway are fenced, right up to the crossings. There were a number of these completed, and a number still under construction all along the way on Rt 1, to Banff.
In town Banff, it looks like pictures of a Swiss village. It was loaded with traffic and people. Again, it looks like all of Canada is on vacation. Those Canadians vacation with a vengeance!

Hey, he may be more expensive, but we're bigger!
