Is This Really the Road?

Once we had crossed the border into Canada, we traveled for a while before arriving at Radium Springs.  Here we took a turn into the Kootenay National Park which also provides the main road up towards Banff. As we made the turn and took the entrance into the park, I was convinced that something was wrong. We were driving right at a cliff. Sure, there appeared to be a crack in the cliff but that surely couldn’t be the road. However, that is exactly what it was.  The road ran through this tiny gap and into the valley beyond. It was quite a stunning way to enter a park!
