Canada in May

This is Canada and the Alaska Highway in May, the first half our trip. We spent a few days at Elk Island National Park, where it snowed. Then we headed onto the Canadian Rockies. We felt like our trip was really beginning once we made it to Fort Nelson. We started seeing lots of bears, moose, and goofy caribou along the road. We spent a few extra nights at Liard River Hot Springs. Who wouldn't enjoy soaking in a natural hot spring after long days of driving and cold nights camping?
