Spring Travel in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan

In late May we traveled to Alberta and Saskatchewan returning in early June. Although we encountered a lot of rain and cold weather, we enjoyed the lack of crowds and the late spring wildlife. We made stops in Revelstoke, Banff, Cypress Hills (AB), Grasslands National Park, Brooks and Logan Lake.
