There’s really no place like the Canadian Rockies, Jasper and Banff National Parks are amazing places to visit. Something many visitors may not know though is that back in July 2018 bison were reintroduced to Banff National Park. They spent their first couple of calving seasons within a confinement deep in the backcountry and have since had their barriers removed (the bison now consider that location home). It’s nearly impossible to spot the now herd of 60 plus in the park without having some serious backcountry knowledge, however someday, hopefully, their population will be large enough to grace visitors with their presence in the future. In the meantime if you are ever in Canada, we highly suggest you visit these remarkable parks.
