Shannon and I flew back to Vancouver through Seattle, spent the night and drove east in our popup camper across British Columbia into Alberta, where we explored Jasper and Banff Parks.

After a night at the luxurious Blackfoot Hotel in Calgary we then returned across the US border into Glacier NP.

The fine clear weather that had blessed us so remarkably at Denali then turned sour: rain, sleet, hail and snow chased us out of Glacier and south toward Yellowstone.

After a few nights camping we headed south again, passing through Grand Teton NP.
We spent one night at Dinosaur National Monument before continuing east to visit my daughter Amelia and her family outside Ft Collins CO, and then one final night of camping at Lathrop State Park before arriving home again.

THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME!
