Mountain goats, frozen sandwiches and never ending hikes....

It's been over a week since we wrote last time.We have spent seven days in a tent in the Kootney mountains and are finally back to 'civilization' at a Ramada Inn in the town of Golden. Because the lack of modern technologies of internet and electricity over the past week, and in order to give...

Hotsprings, cold nights and time zones

The last three nights were spent at the Canyon RV resort (sounds exclusive) which is a very well maintained camp site right outside Radium Hotsprings. The actual hotsprings are located 4 km up in the mountain in the Kootney National park, but a village with the same name is located just below...

The Canadian Rockies & Alberta

Wow! Time flies and once we stop and attempt to write a bit for the blog so much has happened since the last entry that it is a little bit difficult to remember what we saw, and where it was, and when! We continuted from Fort Nelson To Dawson Creek and with the arrival to Dawson Creek which...

Haines Junction, Watson Lake and Fort Nelson

So it is Robert's turn to add to the blog, but he has opted to defer his entry so Victoria is back at the keyboard but she will still try to write from the perspective of both of us. We came back to Whitehorse and spent one day just doing 'boring' chores. Even as free spirited travelers,...

Searching for gold in Dawson, grey flamingos and more...

This entry will be a little bit different. So far, Victoria has done all the writing for the blog and Robert has done all the driving and making sure our car gets us from point A to point B. In other words, we've tried to divide tasks and responsibilities a little bit just to make our lives a...

The Arctic Circle; the journey to and from Inuvik

Some things you do because you really want to do them even though there is no apparent reason for why. Some other things you do because you 'have to' or 'should' do them. The best way to describe our trip up to Inuvik is probably a combination of them both. Yes, we wanted to go to Inuvik because...

More Dease Lake, Telegraph Creek, some other lakes and lots of highway!

This entry is being written somewhere on the Alaska Highway just north of the Yukon border. We left Dease Lake after the longest stop (4 days) so far and are now driving towards Whitehorse. Our stop in Dease Lake was truly amazing and since we spent four days there, we’ll write a little more...

Dease Lake

On the road again! After a night in Stewart we headed off in the morning but before hitting the road north, we decided to go back to Alaska, just a few miles from the border to Fish Creek. This was apparently the place to see BEARS as they come down to the river when the salmon is spawning in...

Getting Hyderized....

Ok, so we already wrote a little today from Terrace. However, the afternoon that followed is definitely worth being documented! We headed north on route 37 towards Stewart which is a little town right on the border to Alaska and the United States. In fact, the closest town on the U.S. side;...

Gone fishing!

We've realized that you have to be creative in finding internet access when you are traveling. This entry is written from the car in the parking lot of Safeway in Terrace 'stealing' wireless access from the Starbucks next door! We've been on the road for a week now and after leaving Prince...
