Today was an interesting day of driving. -20 C with blowing snow.
Near whiteout conditions for brief moments. -38 C with the
windchill. In spite of the conditions the road was surprisingly
dry and made driving uneventful. We went from Calgary to Swift Current.
When we started we didn’t even know if we would make it 50 km, but we
ended up covering 520 km. It was clear and beautiful for the
second half of the drive. We saw Bison, we saw a Coyote chasing a herd
of antilope. All so amazing… Canada in the winter is a sight to
behold…
Oh yeah, google maps is an amazing tools to help you plan as you
go. Of course you need internet connections to gain access.
Surprisingly, we are finding internet connections quiet easily. Check out this link to see todays accomplishment.
