On Day 59 of the trip, June 23rd, I made the 60-km drive from Meziadin Lake Provincial Park along BC Highway 37A, the Glacier Highway, to Stewart. I had enough to see and do in Stewart for at least 2 nights, and was open to extending that for another...

On Day 58 of the trip, June 22nd, I took a shortcut to the Stewart-Cassiar Highway on what’s commonly known as the Nass Forest Service Road. When I last drove it about a dozen years ago in the Tracker, it was rough but not unreasonable. This time, it was...

Leaving Gitlaxt’aamiks (New Aiyansh) at 4:00 pm on Day 57 of the trip, June 21, we began a driving tour of Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park, which is actually called Anhluut’ukwsim Laxmihl Angwinga’asanskwhl Nisga’a. See a park map (pdf, 198 Kb). It was and has been extremely difficult...

Having given up on some sunny days arriving in Smithers, on Day 57 of the trip, June 21, the first day of summer, we moved west and north to Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park. A 253-km (157-mi) drive would still give us plenty of time to explore the...

On Day 45 of the trip, June 9th, after 37 days being within a short distance of the ocean, I moved inland. After taking a ferry from the Sunshine Coast, the Sea to Sky Highway (BC Highway 99) was the route to Pemberton. We had a nice calm morning...

After hiking in to Skookumchuck Narrows in the morning of Day 43 of the trip, June 7th, I made the short drive to Sechelt. We got set up for 2 nights at the Porpoise Bay Provincial Park campground just north of town, and began our Sechelt exploring with a...

After reaching Earl’s Cove by ferry on Day 40 of the trip, June 4th, I got a camp site at Timberline RV Park, and then drove to Egmont to see if I could get on a boat tour to Princess Louisa Inlet. Picking Timberline RV Park as a place...

Day 37 of the trip, June 1st, was a day of exploring with my RVing friends Barb and Dave Rees, lunch with them at Lund, and then lots of walking in Powell River with my dogs. The Willingdon Beach Campground, which I had booked at Barb’s suggestion, was working...

After Cathy flew back home, I had 2 days to spend on Vancouver Island before taking the ferry to Powell River. After some thought over my morning coffees on Day 34 of the trip (May 29th) I decided to move to Englishman River Falls Provincial Park for that night....
