We began Day 14, May 9th, at the Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park campground, where we’d spent the night. A tour of McLean Mill National Historic Site was the main event of the day, which ended at Pacific Rim National Park. Rathtrevor Beach is one of the largest government campgrounds...

We didn’t get much touristing done on Day 11. We did have a good look at Sidney while working to get our final plumbing problem in the RV repaired. Oceanside RV Resort gets top marks except in the wifi department. Our site, #16, is quite close to one of...

On Day 9 of the trip, May 4th, Cathy joined us, and we took a ferry to Vancouver Island to explore for 3-4 weeks. It takes a while to acclimatize to the busy-ness of the Fraser Valley. Luckily, the traffic was reasonably light except for one jam-up getting on...

Days 7 and 8 of the trip, May 2nd and 3rd, took us from the calm and spectacular Fraser Canyon to the extremely busy world of freeways and malls at Chilliwack. The pullout at the old Kanaka Bar Lodge was a fine place to wake up. I don’t remember...

Day 6 (May 1st) was a busy day photographically – after editing, there are 206 photos in the day’s folder. This post takes us the final 15 km or so to our overnight spot across the highway from the abandoned Kanaka Bar Lodge. The first stop was only a...

On Day 6, May 1st, I continued exploring the Thompson River and Fraser River Canyons, which had been planned as the main focus of this first week on the road. We spent the previous night at the Gold Pan Provincial Park campground, and I was in no hurry to...

Day 5 of the trip, April 30th, was a busy day. Once I hooked the Tracker back up to the motorhome after exploring Ashcroft, we continued south to Spences Bridge and on to the campground at Gold Pan Provincial Park on the Thompson River. Although I kept going in...

Day 3, Friday, April 29th, would be a much easier day, with less than 400 km the goal, to a rest area north of Prince George. The sunrise in Dawson Creek was stunning. This was shot at 05:29. It was looking to be another mostly cloudy day, with rainstorms...

As I write this, Day 3 of the season-opener Adventure has begun. The plan for the trip is rather vague other than it will all be in northern and western British Columbia, and Vancouver Island is the primary focus. We’ll be on “The Island” for about a month. Cathy...

On Friday, September 23rd, I had set up camp at the Yukon River Campground across the river from Dawson City at 4:00 pm. Although closed, the gate was open so no-services camping is allowed. I had a few hours to explore that afternoon and the next morning, and then...
