Day 4 June 2nd

in spite of raining all night and rain at dawn we were up and about at 05:30 and off to look for bears but rain and bears don't seem to mix very well -- several elk were about the park entrance and the rain eased for a while allowing close views of a pair of Coyotes a few White-tailed Deer / Mule Deer (still not sussed them out) ; a Black Bear tried to cross the road but gave up, a few Common Mergansers were on the river and we had a look at the bison in their admittedly large enclosure but still a sad sight surrounded by a high fence -- then the rain really set in and with the next night booked at Canmore a long drive in the rain seemed the best option
