Hudson's Hope, BC

I must amend my assessment of Prince George. Yesterday I had only been to the city center from the east side. We rode out via BC97 north this morning. It still looks like a sick city but the north side is nicer.

The ride today was as scenic as ever. Lots of alpine lakes, indescribable views. At times when I rounded a bend or crested a rise the scene before me was enough to make me catch my breath.

Fred saw one bear that I missed. It was just a pup, he said, and it scampered back into the woods as he slowed to get a picture.

We are camping in a municipal campground and the folks here are wonderful. There is hot water and flush toilets at the camp. We pitched two tents on one site for one fee. Fred has cellphone coverage but I don't.

Tomorrow we join the Alcan Highway at Fort Saint John. It is still about 1200 miles to the end.

I'm going to save my battery as there is no AC nearby
