August 5 to 9, 2015: Canada and back to the USA

Our mission is to get back to United States fairly quickly so we can have phone service and reliable internet.  We continued east on the Yellowhead Highway through the Canadian Rockies to Jasper where we turned south on the IceField Parkway.  The drive started with heavy, low clouds and light rain, but as we headed south, the clouds began to break up and we enjoyed some beautiful scenery.

We turned off the IceFields parkway just before Lake Louise and headed back west over the Rockies to the resort town of Golden on the western flank of the mountains.  Great little town and we tried to stay at a golf course that looked fabulous, but we couldn't get a tee time that was good for us, so ended up staying in a campground near the highway.

 Leaving Golden, we drove south on 93 with a long day of driving to get through the USA border late afternoon and down to the Whitefish, Montana area where we wanted to stay.

Found a good campground and spent the last couple of days recuperating, doing a lot of shopping, washing the filthy RV and other errands.  On to Glacier National Park tomorrow.
