Our Epic Northwestern Journey – Part 25 – Canada In The Wild – B – Banff And Beyond

After leaving the visitor’s center, we continued on our Canadian wildlife adventures. We were heading towards Banff. We went to both the Banff Mountains as well as the town of Banff. I have been lucky enough to visit many, many beautiful places around the world, but Banff is just breathtaking!

This is Natural Bridge. Pictures just don’t do it justice at all.

Once in the town of Banff, we saw even more wildlife, just freely walking around and enjoying life. Banff is known for it’s world class skiing.

I was making friends with the little chipmunks and marmots around the visitor’s center.

Inside, there were more of the locals on display. We did see these in the wild, but again, not close enough to get any good shots. These will have to do.

We did NOT see any grizzlies though. That would have been an adventure for sure.

We saw a Saint Bernard, Jasper, that we just had to cuddle with. We miss our Saints, Lucie and Vinnie. Jasper was good Saintly therapy for us.

The town of Banff was just as beautiful as the Banff Mountain areas.

These are the street makers. All the streets were named after Canadian wildlife.

We were making friends with the locals too. Lee is getting bear kisses and hugs.

Leaving Banff, we saw a few Caribou on the side of the road too.

Again, this is a good stopping point. We still have a lot more adventures for the day. But I am going to leave you in a bit of suspense. Anticipation is a good thing. 🙂

I hope you have enjoyed Banff and the surrounding areas as much as we did. Hang tight. I’ve got lots more coming up. Have a great day and make everyday great. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
