They are not called the Rocky Mountains for nothing! The drive from Vancouver, BC to Calgary, Alberta through the Canadian Rockies is a must road (or train) trip.
The mountain scenery is breathtaking.
The air is clean and the water is pure.
A never-ending landscape of overwhelming beauty greets the traveler. I miss the mountains and raw nature living in Bangkok.
A highlight of a drive across the Canadian Rockies is the amazing milky-blue green Lake Louise, near the town of Bangkok.
There were posted signs for bears, elk, and moose danger . . . but we did not stray too far off the beaten path.
Mountain weather changes very rapidly. There were fantastically moody scenes in the high passes through the Rockies.
Even the "roadside attractions" were attractive in Canada.
This peacock was part of the attraction at a roadside fruit stand/farmers' market. We loaded the rental car with "exotic (to us) fruits like apricots, cherries, peaches, and pears . . . and later enjoyed the purgative properties therefrom.
