We made it.

3 days of driving, 7 moose (6 living), 1 fox, 1 wolf, 6 tanks of gas, and 36 hours of driving finally got us into Banff yesterday.

A local tipped us off to a keg party at Hoodoo Lounge which made karaoke at Wild Bill's seem like a good idea. The last beer in the keg went to yours truly, and a duet featuring me and a British chick (Don't Go Breakin' My Heart) brought down the house. Parks Canada issued a *ahem* cougar advisory for Banff National Park.

All of this made for a rough start to the morning, but we tore up Kicking Horse nevertheless.

A quick trip down the road, and we are holed up in Revy. RMR tomorrow, after which Captain Kirk and I will part company in Salmon Arm, and I will proceed solo to Vancouver fueled by RedBull and diesel.

A friend scored her and I tickets to the closing ceremonies. I payed WAY too much for them, but I'm going, and you're not.
