Wateron National Park

On the way back from Cameron Lake, Shan decided to stop and go for a *quick* swim in the lake. Um. he was in there for a total of 5 seconds if you are lucky. Funny thing is - he went in again. And jumped out again.

His extremeties were frozen for the rest of the afternoon.

Cameron Lake

Cameron Lake is a short drive from Waterton town (still in the national park). At the lake we decided to paddle. And we decided to paddle to the end of the lake. Well.... we didn't make it. We paddled solidly for 40 minutes and we were not close. We didn't realise that at the end of the lake was Montana! ha! Anyway, Shannon was having "issues" and we had to paddle back anyway. Lets just say that the paddle back to the dock was not fun. For Shannon anyway :)

Waterton had deer walking down the main street!

Waterton Lakes National Park

On Sunday, we made it to Waterton Lakes. This place is also a UNESCO heritage site (as is Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump). The place was not as busy as expected - which was great. The national park goes across the US/Canada border into Montana, and the park on the US side is the Glacier Park. You are also able to take a ferry which takes you into Montana, but we didn't get a chance to do it. We did see our first grizzly cub here though! On the way back from driving Cameron Lake in the national park, there was a build up of cars - and we were lucky to see out of the corner of our eye a little cub. We weren't quick enough to take a photo but we definetly saw one! You'll have to take our word for it!
