We had a rest day today. Mike fixed the windscreen wipers, which meant taking Rodger’s bonnet off. I got some editing done.

In the afternoon we looked around the town on Jasper. It’s a cute little ski town surrounded by mounty. It’s smaller than Banff and definitely less touristy. Mike saw some trains so he was happy. We also had another feed of delicious poutine (gravy cheese curd chips).

It’s really warm in Jasper. We had a high of 16 and we were sweating. It’s funny how you acclimate to the cold. Anything above zero is bearable. When we’ve beef having sub zero days, 6 degrees feels warm!

It was good to have a break. Moving on tomorrow. There are still fires burning on the Alaska highway so we’ll have to take the Cassier which is apparently also quite scenic.
