The two RV Gypsies parked their RV at Redstreak Campground in Radium and had a nice full hook-up site, but branches from the trees on the site scratched the entire side of their RV. The campground did not have Wi-Fi, or TV, but they did allow washing RVs and toads. There was a show nightly at 8 P.M. at the campground theater. This is Bear area so all bear attractants must be in the truck of a car, inside the RV, or in a bear-proof locker. No food or food bowls unsecured at campsite - no cooking in tents or tent-trailers.

The two RV Gypsies stopped at the Visitor Center that is just below the campground road and read the signage and photographed the statues because they had just seen the Big Horn sheep on the road approaching the Visitor Center.

Karen Duquette decided to indulge in some relaxation at Radium Hot Springs in Kootenay National Park of Canada - eastern B.C's largest day spa.

This is a very large outdoor heated pool.

Radium Hot Springs
Radium Hot Springs began with the unleashing of powerful forces that left its tale in heaving tortured rocks. The earth's crust cracked along a fault more then two kilometers deep. The shatter zone around the fault let groundwater seep close to the earth's core, heating, pressurizing and returning it to the surface. The soothing mineral-rich warm water and the stunning Rocky Mountain scenery combine to relax tired muscles and bring peace of mind. However, there were so many people in this pool, that Karen did not find it as enjoyable as Liard or Chena Hot Springs. It was like swimming in an ordinary, but large, swimming pool.

Radium Hot Springs had a wonderful spa. Karen Duquette got a body massage that was fabulous, plus a full-body mud wrap that was also great. During this time, Karen also used the indoor hot tub with jets that she enjoyed more than the big hot swim pool outside. Although Karen found the hot pool disappointing, the spa area was fantastic. The Radium massage spa and service was much nicer than Banff's massage spa.
