The Highway skirts along the edge of subalpine lakes, Summit Lake and Muncho Lake. It is beautiful. We stopped and scoured the hillsides in search for the Stone’s Sheep that are indigenous only to this area. No luck. We give up and move on. Two miles down the road a male with his gorgeous curled horns is sitting roadside. Go figure.
We keep our eyes peeled for Wood Bison. No luck spotting them either.
Caribou show up. They are certainly gangly things when they are young. None were as impressive as the pictures in all the brochures when they have the huge antlers in the fall. Still, cool to see something so rare.
