Today we drove from PG through McBride and Valemount and are now in Clearwater. Just on the edge of Wells Gray Provincial Park. Tomorrow we will go exploring and hiking in the park. We're back to shorts and t-shirts, even had a swim at the campground. (PG was rainy and only about +17C).
Just wanted to prove that we had been far enough east that we were close to the Rockies. In fact we passed very near to Mount Robson, but couldn't actually see it. We also crossed the North Thompson River several times. It too, is a beautiful, clean, big river. The road today was through the valleys, -beautiful, easy drive.
Beautiful picture of the mountains. Kelly
ReplyDeleteI came through Valemont and got stranded at Mud Lake when they were building the new "yellowhead" route down Hwy 5. That was a long time ago. I had a new 1967 Chev 1/2 ton and it was the summer of '68. I could write a book about that trip and crossing the north Thompson on log bridges that sank into the fast running water as we crossed.
