First, let me clarify TCH-1. To a Californian it means one thing but to a Canadian it refers to the Trans Canada Highway #1.
TCH-1 is transitioning to divided (twinned, they say here) through the park. There is big concern about the highway and the railway blocking normal paths of animal movement, and accidents if animals (and people) are not separated. Hence, overpasses exclusively for animals. I think this cost a bit more than the Davis toad tunnels, and the officials are building several of these.
Marcia is getting very good at snapping pictures through the window of a moving car, and the camera stability feature is a big help. Traffic was slowing and suddenly she spotted our first moose of the trip, in a beautiful sunlit portion of the Bow River. Excited, she didn't think to take a picture then quickly got one off with me hollering at her. Cropped, this is what she got before I had to speed up.
