Kimberley to the Entrance of Kootenay National Park

We left Fort Steele after breakfast and had a small detour to see Kimberley, a small town that models itself on an Austrian resort.
Just outside of Kimberley we saw a Black bear in the fields, but alas we could not stop to get photos

We are now driving North West towards Banff and The National Parks, this is Canal Flats, the scenery is more spectacular as we near the parks.

We are entering the Parks at Kootenay National park. Below you see the Entrance through a narrow Gorge. There is a small charge for driving and camping in the Parks. WE will be spending the next Five days in the parks before heading back to Vancouver.
