We spent the long Canada Day (July 1st) weekend in Mount Robson Provincial Park in British Columbia. Mount Robson is the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies. The glacier fed Fraser River flowed through the campground that was encircled by towering peaks. We continued on to the Icefields Parkway, one of the most beautiful roads of mountain scenery in the world. The parkway connects Jasper and Banff National Parks. Even the flat tire on the drive did not detract from our appreciation of the area. It gave us an opportunity to pause and take in our surroundings. We camped for a few days in Banff National Park. Dennis created a sense of community in our rain soaked camping loop by keeping a fire burning in the cast iron stove in our group shelter.
