Driving to Alaska, Part II

Day 3 was fairly uneventful; driving from the Boulder area to Helena, Montana was OK - territory I've been through before so no surprises. Day 4 would see me cross into Canada. Passed through some mountains in southern and mid-Montana; as I approached the Canadian border the landscape changed to fields and praire. I snapped a few early morning photos on October 6th, about 100 miles south of the border. I drove straight on through Calgary and Edmonton, and overnighted in the worst dive of the trip, somewhere northwest of Edmunton, where unfortunately there was no such thing as a "non-smoking room"...
