Elk Island National park

After that 900 km drive we settled on Elk Island National park. Nice area with lots of buggy trails leading to lakes (swamps). Only 40 sites, but we still had our choice of 30, not busy at all.

We decided we would take  another site after getting a good look at some mouse droppings.


Here’s the culprit and they do from time to time wander through the campsite, though not on our watch.

Amy had a rough night sleeping last night, the pack of wolves out hunting were howling from about 03:00  until almost dawn. No photos on those guys.
We were "interviewed" last night by a few fellows from South Korea who were doing a documentary on how Canadians spent some of their leisure time. They videoed the campsite, quite fascinated by things like the axe, tent and cooking utensils, and especially the wood fire. We gave them our email addresses so they can show us the film. Guess we won't be able to understand it :-)
Our destination Tuesday will be Dawson Creek, in the rain, leaving here about 09:00 to avoid the Deadmonton rush hours traffic.

  1. Good thing you moved sites. That mouse dropping would make a hell of an awful slipper! ;-)
