Duration: 4 nights

Day Three
The rain stopped! We switched sites to be closer to our friends, Lou & Shannon. We actually talked about changing our plans for Friday & Saturday (in order to cut down on some of the long drives ahead of us), but every place we were considering was booked, so we decided to stay where we were.
We drove into Jasper, parking at the free RV parking lot on the edge of town, and wandered around town for a couple of hours. Relaxed back at the campground for a while before heading to Jasper Brewing Co. for dinner. After dinner, we drove to Tekarra for an after dinner drink. We were able to take our drinks out to the bluff, which overlooks the Athabasca River and beautiful views of the surrounding mountains.
Note: When I composed this post, the Jasper National Park fire was still active. We are heartbroken for the residents, businesses and staff who call Jasper their home. This year's fire was such a terrible loss to one of Canada's beautiful national parks. It breaks my heart to know that many of the places in these photos have suffered severe damage due to the fire.
