Tonight, I went back to Banff at 8pm and stayed till 10pm. It was just then that it got dark. And from 8pm to 10pm is the best time to visit since there is less traffic and it starts getting cooler. I had the chance to eat my first ever poutine and it was a hit. Loved it! I ate it about 7:30pm...

Will try to get the video of when I pulled up at scene after accident just occurred like a minute before. And video continues when ambulance and fire fighters show up to take care of accident victims and clean the road. When I get that video done, I will post it here. Video done and posted now...

You are very correct. And I just could not pass up the chance to help someone in need. I know I would be grateful if someone helped me if I found myself in such a situation. I was surprised when the driver of the Subaru made that observation. I was thinking in my mind, he is hurt and should be...

Accident in Banff. Large adult Moose vs Subaru Outback. Moose is shot dead after accident by the park rangers. As we were leaving the park this afternoon to head to our hotel, I had my gopro running and getting footage when I suddenly came upon this accident that just happened like 1 minute...

Today we left Calgary for Canmore, where we will be staying while visiting Banff and surroundings. If you are visiting Banff National Park, this is a recommend place to stop for advice and brochure. These girls working here know their stuff. I mean, they are so happy doing what they do and very...

Calgary Zoo random pictures... The penguins were just cool and basically admiring the crowd and I was just wondering what they were saying to each other about the people watching them. This hippo did entertain the crowd as it was always swimming next to people and opened its mouth one time...

Calgary Heritage Park Historical Village random pictures...

Today was visiting Calgary Heritage Park Historical Village and the Calgary Zoo. First off a heart healthy breakfast at OEB Breakfast Co. Supposedly the best breakfast place in Calgary. Well, that is what the internet told me based on reviews. And it did not disappoint. My only complain was...

I attended the Calgary Stampede yesterday and had a great experience. First, I had learned the traffic was going to be insane, so I had to figure out a way to get there without being stuck in traffic. After a lot of research online, I figured taking the train would be the best option. We had to...

Thanks a lot for that info, Doug. I am scrapping that route from my itinerary. Going this way now...

Just a short video of my drive on the Red Coat Trail. Showing some of the 18wheelers that frequent the road and haul very heavy and large machinery. They are very oversized and almost cover 3/4 of the road. This one took me 15 minutes before I could find a way to safely get past it. But when I...

Today has been a truly long day. Driving from Winnipeg to Calgary using only the Red Coat Trail. What a difference in scenery. 2 lane road with lower speed limit than the main highway 1. This journey took us today 16 hours driving. This includes stopping for gas and food. Well, the QX...

This evening was one of the greatest days I have ever had on a road trip. I got to visit forum member @Wintepeg and family. We have never met before and he had invited us to come over if I ever did my road trip. So, we kept in touch until today when we met. What a great guy with a loving family...

Man, I cannot express my gratitude for you taking the time to receive us, let us meet your loving family, give us a tour of your house, man cave and take the time to cook for us and basically stuff us with all that awesome food. Unlimited wings with multiple flavors!!! A batch of Buffalo hot...

Woke up today and was on the road for my 2 hours 30 minutes drive to Winnipeg. The drive was so calm with very few cars on the freeway. On the way, I saw a ton of these Yellow Canola Flowers. I had to stop to admire and take a pic. Next stop, Canadian Border. With no traffic in any of the...

The states I go through on my road trip in the order I go through them...

Started my trip last night after 9pm. Been driving for about 10 hours now. Still have about 14 hours to go.

Nice pictures. Love the way you put your Xterra to use.

With less than 7 days before I take off on my road trip, I have been doing some last minute updates on my itinerary and want to thank you again for these tips. I will be including them especially Mt Edith Cavell by Jasper. And it seems for all the others, I may be doing about 80% of all that you...

That video was just amazing. You made a great video without even using a drone. If you had a drone and had some arial shots, would only add to the awesomeness of the videos for sure. Keep overlanding. And happy travels.
