Jasper

place. Rugged Canadian park full of pointy mountains and deep slot canyons that both provide delightful vistas and chances to lose a limb. Bears, hungry and ornery 24/7, compete with bighorn sheep and rutting elk for handouts from misguided tourists. Avalanches of snow and skiers in winter and rock in summer often flatten the frankly decaying townsite but a thriving gravel-extraction industrial plant working on the mounds of tailings from the failed gold industry and moraines from the failed glacier industry are turning things around. The recent anti-masking truck convoy passing through the park amused many of the smaller marmots and almost made up for the total lack of after-hours entertainment for which the tourists, bone-tired after long treks into the jasperiffic hinterlands, thirst.
