August 17, 2005, Wednesday. We arrived at Waterton International Peace Park, situated at the southwest corner of Alberta on the US border. Actually quite small 210 square miles, but eons of geological activity which have left a legacy of richly colored mountains and canyons and lots of nice hiking areas.
We located The Historic Kilmorey Lodge our home for the next two nights. We thought it would be pleasant to spend some time out of the Bothan.
Well, it was a rainy day and we could not get into the room until 3 PM, so we drove around and walked some. We had lunch at the Prince of Wales lodge. The soup was cold, the salad was ok, the price was too high, and the service was sloooowwwww.
It seemed strange to be in a room with a bathtub!!! Yeah!!! We walked around town and had a meal in a nice Italian restaurant. The rain came in buckets so we went to a movie.
August 18, 2005, Thursday. We attacked the day by driving up Red Rock Canyon. We saw black bear and cayote
along the way. We hiked the Red Rock Canyon loop and up to the Blakiston Falls. We hiked to Cameron Falls.
After a light lunch and biked around the lake/town. Today is just beautiful, sunny and clear.
