After almost three weeks in Canada, we crossed over to the western side of the Canadian Rockies for a brief visit to Radium Hot Springs before heading south and back to the USA. The very warm hot springs pools (104 degrees) were quite refreshing for our hiking legs. While in Radium Hot Springs we could not miss the bighorn sheep that roam freely all around town!





While in Radium, we took a trip out to the Columbia wetlands to see Canada’s version of the Everglades. Looked much like a Florida marsh but with mountains all around and no alligators!



No alligators either, just this golden eagle that was flying around.

We had a picnic at the crystal clear Olive lake before heading south and across the border back to the good ole USA.

We spent our first night back in the USA in Whitefish Montana and had a lovely campsite overlooking Whitefish lake were we enjoyed a kayak trip around the lake and a refreshing dip in the water as the temperatures in Montana reached 90 degrees during the day.
