June 26, Alberta, Canada
















June 24th left the USA into Alberta, Canada. Customs was easy, to our relief. Topped the first hill into Alberta and had to slow for a cattle drive coming up the side of the highway. We stopped at Fort Macleod for the night and visited "Smashed-in-head Buffalo Jump", a United Nations Indian Heritage Site. This is an archeological find where the Indians, before they had horses, actually ran the buffalo off a cliff to kill them. It was a great interpretive site and museum. We learned many new details about their hunting strategies and lifestyle.
