Banff and Lake Louise











From Banff to Lake Louise the views just get better and better. We parked the car in the Lake Louise campground and took a quick drive around the park, as we were completing the last turn around the tent section, we spotted a mother Grizzly Bear with two cubs. Just a few feet from the car we felt somewhat safe with a multiple strand electric fence between us. That didn’t stop one of the cubs from performing a mock charge just to let us know we were to close. The mother was busy tearing apart something on the ground with great interest even charging the other cub when it got in the way. The Lake Louise campground is much better than the Banff campground that looked more like a parking lot.

  1. I was very anxious about camping there. We love camping and only thing stop me is the bear and wolves. Its a deep forest and rich land in banff. When i found out that there a fence around camping area i feel a little better. So have the bear break through the fence before? I have 2 small kids and i worry about their safety.
