Days: 53 – 54 Mile: 6178 We left Grizzly Lake and headed for Anchorage. We didn’t see any grizzly bears at Grizzly Lake but we did learn a lesson; check out the campground roads before you park for the night. I think we may have been the largest rig to have stayed here. Getting out…

Day: 52 Mile: 5897 Today is Gary’s birthday. We traveled from Tok, Alaska to Grizzly Lake Campgrounds.The drive took us along the Tok Cutoff toward Anchorage. Technically we are no longer on the Alaska Canada Highway as the highway continued north from Tok up to Fairbanks where the Alaska Canada Highway ends. We arrived early…

Days: 50-51 Somewhere along the way Gary said, “There are just no words for this.” He was referring to the beauty all around us. This post has some of my favorite photos from the last couple of days. I don’t have a fancy camera. All these photos were taken with my iPhone 13. In order…

Day: 46-49 Mile: 5503 Over the past several days we have traveled through the Northern Rockies, passing in and out of British Columbia and the Yukon Territory. It is beautiful and remote, which means no cell or internet service.  Here are some highlights from the past three days.   We also learned from the museum…

Days: 44-45 Mile: 4618 We made it to Dawson Creek, Mile 0 of the Alaskan-Canadian Highway. The Alaskan – Canadian Highway runs from Dawson Creek, British Columbia to Fairbanks, Alaska. Construction began on the highway in March of 1942 and the highway was officially opened on November 20, 1942. A truly amazing feat to build…

Days: 41-43 Mile: 4285 We spend two days in Vancouver, well actually Burnaby, at a campground with an indoor pool and hot tub. We were within walking distance of a Costco and the Sky Train, which we took to downtown Vancouver both days to see the sights. Three times younger riders offered me their seats.…

Days: 35-40 Mile: 3879  On day 35 we left Yachats, OR and headed north up highway 101 to the Canadian border.  We stopped in Cannon Beach, OR to see the Haystack Rocks. Now, I have been to Cannon Beach several times before. It’s truly an amazing place. A broad, empty beach with these amazing rocks sticking…

Days: 31-35 Mile: 3356 We are currently in one of those places where I can’t put my camera down. I think you will see what I mean. This post is full of photos. It’s just that every time you go around a corner, every time the sun comes out from under the clouds, or the…

Day: 29 Mile: No Change We rented a car, so we have taken day trips, picked up Lorna at the airport, made runs to Lowe’s for a new kitchen faucet and we had the Greyhawk checked out at a Ford dealer. We have stocked up on groceries and wine, done all the laundry and cleaned…

Day 28 Mile: No Change We have been parked at my nephews in Oregon City, OR since Day 22.  As you recall we arrived in Portland in time for the swim meet in spite of the check engine light that came on in the Greyhawk on Day 21.  The good news is, the Greyhawk is fixed.…
