Athabasca River just south of Jasper. |

Mountain goats love this area. |
 |
They are more sure footed than Meghan dog. |
 |
The weather was quite volatile. |

A civilized bear. |

The Maligne River. We did a 3 mile hike along the river in this beautiful canyon. |
 |
This river originates about 30 miles up stream in Maligne Lake. It travels under ground a good part of the way to this area. |
 |
Meghan was allowed on all of the Canadian Park trails. She lost weight on this trip, becoming lean and mean again. |
 |
Rafting was not allowed on this river. |

Tangle creek is aptly named. |

I would rate this class 6 unraftable. |

Elk in the back of our Whistler camp ground site. |
 |
They were so tame enjoying the lush grass. |

This fellow even laid down for a bit. Meghan went crazy watching them from the trailer, but cooled down eventually. |
