Kamloops RV Park

We left Fairmont Hot Springs this morning and drove most of the day till we stopped at an RV Park in Kamloops.  Speaking of driving, the average cost of diesel fuel is $1.15 per liter.  That is equivalent to $4.36 per gallon. Close to double the price of what it is in the US.  As we approached the Canadian Glacier National Park, it became extremely smoky.   There were a lot of forest fires in the area. We then proceeded through Rogers Pass and the smoke cleared and we could see glaciers.

Through the park were "snow sheds".  These were tunnel like structures that were built to protect the road and the vehicles from avalanches during the winter. We drove through about 10 of them.
