We left Mile-O-Camp early and headed out to Toad River. It was the better part of a 400 mile trip with lunch and fuel {$98} and Propane for the furnace {$26} at a stop in Fort Nelson, then on our way. The area now is Great North Rockies in B.C. We saw Two Black bears, stone sheep, elk, and to top it off a Moose ran right by our door as we were cleaning up after eating.[We grilled steaks] He was huge and in no hurry, we followed him out to the road and watched him go into the woods. The Camp ground that we are at is at mile 422 of the Alaskan Highway, The weather is still great. We have taken a whole lot of pictures. As I try to post the photos I can only do 4 at a time. We filled the RV when we got her [$168] fuel is the most expensive part of this trip. But worth every cent so far. The main enterprise seems to be oil well and related businesses, some of the trucks they use are huge, they had eight tires on the front end, I have not figured out how they turn the things. We have encountered grades as high as 10% for 2 or 3 miles. Makes for interesting driving. Judy and Nancy still are enjoying driving the RV.
Sounds like a great adventure,Hope its warmer than Florida and South Carolina were this winter.Would it help to send a speedway gas card?
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you all in some pictures to know that the wildlife haven't gotten you all. Sounds like a great time. Judy and Aunt Nancy since you have become so proficient in driving, maybe next year we should have an all female trip?
