Canada 97 North to Dawson Creek from Prince George



Heading north presents all kinds of decisions! From Prince George, we faced this sign. To Dawson Creek, we decided. Good choice, since we have now seen two bears along the way. The first was just sitting a short distance off the road side, watching the traffic go by like some highway patrol with radar control. Ray saw the next bear which disappeared before I caught a glimpse.

In Prince George, we visited the Railway and Farm Museum where Ray could grown nostalgic about the old Rumley tractor, comparing the more modern aspects of the one pictured below.
Glorious views of the west side of the Canadian Rockies opened vista after vista through the raindrops on the windshield. How lucky can we get--waterfalls and the Rockies all the way up to Chetwynd today, with Dawson Creek and Mile Zero of the Alaska Highway awaiting tomorrow!
