Day 57, Aug 28


What a treat driving in Alberta. From Jasper on, we were on smooth 4 lane divided highway and we were able to make good time. We saw a bald eagle, elk, and deer within the park. Before we crossed into Saskatchewan we saw a large Buffalo farm. 
The highway flattened out in Jasper National Park. We were surprised that we were finished with mountain driving at that point. Fuel economy improved by about 30% with no mountains and a tail wind.
Saskatchewan roads were not as good as the ones in Alberta. They were still a 4 lane divided highway but in places, Lawrie would say that we were on the 60’s road - it was groovy. 
We found a lovely city campground in Davidson about half way between Saskatoon and Regina. It had 18 pull through sites with electricity and 10 tent sites. The washrooms facilities were immaculate. We travelled 1035 km.
