Day 3

Started with motel breakfast and photos at Mile 0 of the Alaska Highway.

Mary at Mile Zero.

Drove from Dawson Creek to Sikanni Chief River. Right out of Dawson Creek we drove over the only original timber bridge built along the Alaska Highway still in use today in Kiskatinaw Provincial Park. It was still raining when we saw the first sign for the Trans Canada Trail!

Fields of canola beside the road and against the dark gray sky made for lovely scenery. Next landmark was the Peace River bridge at Taylor. Rolling farmland that is just stunning.

Rush hour at Pink Mountain.

Passed through Fort St. John on our way to the campground at Sikanni where we met up with Bob and Mary and their faithful sidekick Chico.

Another wet camp at Sikanni Chief River.
Relaxing at the camp. First sunshine at the shabby chic Sikanni campground.
