Days 18-21nd the 3th
of August,
As we left Johnson's Crossing we had a
great start roads were good, but as all good there is a bad and the
roads got bad again, then good again. We made it back to Watson Lake
and then we started our new adventure on route 37 toward Steward.
Once we turned onto 37 it was like going back in time the road was
narrow but good. We went by lots of beautiful lakes, mountains and
streams as well as mossy fields. We saw a fox, 2 moose and 4 bears.
Some of the little towns were Good hope lake, Centerville,Cassiar and
Jade City we stopped here and looked around.We drove 260 miles and
decided to pull over at a rest area, by Dease Lake, there were 2
other big rigs there also.
The next day (day 20) we drove by Iskut
(asmall Tahltan Native community), Bell Lodge 1 and 2 climed a range
of 4400 feet, we had the Skeena Mountains and the Cassiar Mountain
to the south, all around us. As we got closer to Steward the
mountains got closer and then there it was the glacier mountains.
We set up came at Rainny creek
campgound, it is right in the side of a mountain, it like a rain
forest.
Day 20. We drove around to the town of
Hyder which is in Alaska, Steward in in BC. There is only 100 people
in Hyder. This is were the Bear viewing is. We have to cross back
into BC Canada each time we go only 2 miles into Alaska we have to go
through the boarder portrol.
Day 21 we are going to see the bears in
Hyder. We stayed for 2 hours and saw nothing, and then here she came
with her cub. What a great experence that was to see.
