Jasper, sept 2015

We wanted to use our camper more so we planned a fall trip to Jasper.  We ended up in Wapati campground and Friday night we had a nice relaxing walk into town.  We got fries at A&W so we could get ketchup and mustard.  Back at camp we had a nice roaring fire and delicious smokies for dinner.

Next day we rode from Medicine Lake to Maligne Lake, about 22k one way.  It was very challenging, windy and cold and hilly with lots of elevation gain.  We made it to within what I later determined to be about 2k of the end when we decided for M's safety to turn back.

It smelled of smoke where we started riding

We stopped in town for food and bad music at the Whistlers Inn, then met some elk back at camp.

He charged the truck about 2 minutes later

Then back to town for more food and beer and a Riders game!

That night and the next day it rained.  We hit the lovely Miette hot spring on the way home.
