The bear situation in this area must be quite serious. This is the first time that I have stayed in a campground that was enclosed by an electric fence. It made it feel like we were the animals in the zoo and I half expected to see a bear family watching all the humans camping. Interestingly, the Hard-Sided RV campground on other side of river was not enclosed by a fence. That campground has 189 sites, all the same stuff as the soft-sided campground plus electricity. The Bow River Trail Loop is outside the fence so be sure to cross at the people gates and not over the electrified cattle guard.
