July 2004 Canada

Canada and Alaska 2nd - 22nd July 2004
Banff, Alberta, the first place we stayed for 3 nights before boarding the Rocky Mountaineer train to cross the Rockies to Vancouver.We travelled on the train for 2 days with an overnight stop at Kamloops. We did see a bear in a grizzly refuge and another by the railtrack but I do not have pictures.
