We left Fort Benton and got diesel and went to Wal-Mart for groceries in Great Falls, MT. We tried to get some Canadian money, but the banks did not have any, or so they told us. After trying 5 different banks, we decided to get out of town and use our credit card in Canada. Our next stop was St. Mary's, MT, just south of the Canadian border at Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta. We crossed over into Canada (Alberta) at Babb, MT and got to use our passports for the first time. It was a very smooth crossing with very few questions. The area around St. Mary's is very spectacular and beautiful. You are looking straight at the Rocky Mountains. You can cross over to the westside of the Rocky Mountains through Glacier National Park at St. Mary's. We stay at the St. Mary's KOA and had a great campsite. One thing that you can always count on at a KOA, is a hot shower!
