John: Nobody came around this morning with change, so we split the scene... with a night of camping on the
Great Province of Alberta... We continued down the road, but after five or ten minutes, came to the end of the road... in other words, we were lost in the wilderness. There happened to be a place with a green eyed blonde cleaning the outhouses. So I asked her where the hell are we? She told me where we went wrong... (Remember the right turn on the blacktop?) We should’ve turned left... the dumb thing about this is there was a sign just before this turn that said “
Important Intersection Ahead”... And we blew it! Guess that’s what happens when you’re tired and it’s late! We spotted 5-6 deer and another coyote... We did see some bison and a lot of “wild beef” (as the area is open grazing land). We saw more great views today. We also drove through
Waterton Lakes National Park. we took the forestry trunk road off of Rt. 40. It’s about 65 miles of dirt road... It was a pretty good road and went to
Crowsnest Pass. We went through customs and are back in the USA! We are camped at a
KOA in St. Mary’s, Montana. Guess we have to get used to the campgrounds in the lower 48... For instance, this KOA cost 14.58 with not too many amenities... firewood cost 4.00 for like 4-5 pieces (up north wood is free and camp spots cost anywhere from free to 8 to 10 dollars... plus they are very clean). We drove 228 miles today... we spent our last Canadian money on Gas... a total of $7.71. That way we didn’t have to mess with finding a bank and converting back the US money. We will go to Glacier Nat’l Park in the morning.
