World’s Largest Grizzly Bear Refuge – Boo’s Safe Haven
“Maybe we could check out the grizzly bear refuge instead?” Ever patient Hubby offers up a hopeful solution to my sullen state.
Moping over my steaming cup of latte my shoulders slump. Looking through the coffee house windows at the base of Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, the upper slopes lay covered in snow. Planning to climb the Via Ferrata in Golden, British Columbia, the early arrival of Canadian winter in September has thrown a wet and very cold blanket on the agenda.
The cancelling of our assisted rock climb puts my adventurous spirit in a tremendously bad mood.
“Really I think seeing the world’s largest grizzly bear refuge has to be pretty cool.”
Hubby is clearly trying to distract me from my sulking.
“You’re telling me that on this world class ski hill there is a grizzly bear?” The sarcasm in my voice drips off the end of my sentence.

As several mountain bike riders careen down the snowy trails, visions of them being chased for bear breakfast comes to mind.
“I’m telling you the world’s largest enclosed grizzly bear refuge is just up past that chairlift.”
