Calgary, Alberta, Canada
We rolled into Calgary last night, after spending 3 days on the trails of Glacier National Park, MT. On the way up (driving straight through) we passed Sturgis, SD which has its annual monster motorcycle gathering this week. Ever since we hit Kansas, we saw bikers from all around making the pilgrimage to Sturgis. By the time we got to the Badlands (central-west South Dakota), there were probably as many bikers as other vehicles on the road… It was pretty cool.. Maybe next year
. Anyway, Glacier National Park was pretty cool. We entered a bit late, and so we started hiking our 28 miles (26 in the first two days) right away. The 14 mile first day followed by the 12 mile over-the-ridge second day was a bit much for Deepani, but now we’re taking two days in Calgary to relax. Then, we’ll take 4 days in Jasper (Canada’s premier national park), and then….. Alaska. I’m not sure when I’ll have internet next. Until then….
