May 31 – Waterton Lakes National Park to Radium Hot Springs, British Columbia

Overnight the temperature dropped and it starting raining. This is really only the third day with rain. All morning the temperature hovered in the mid to low 40s (6 to 7 for our Canadian friends). We made plans to travel through Crows Nest Past westward to British Columbia. From there we could go north and it a few days head east to Baniff and on to Calgary.

As we headed into British Columbia it stopped raining and warmed up to close to 18 (low to mid sixties for our US friends). We are now camped in Kootany National Park just on the outskirts of Radium Hot Springs. Plan for tomorrow is to explore parts of this national park or maybe head into Baniff National Park. We are staying here two nights. Next move will be Saturday morning when we head to Calgary dropping off Frits and Lynette at the car rental place then Marsha and I will stay overnight with Thereasa and Ken in Calgary.
