Day 6 - begin the Alaskan Highway

1907 miles to date!  Mile "0" of the Alaskan Highway - heading west and north.  We met up with my parents last night at the Mile "0" Campground, took care of all the housekeeping things with the camper and our laundry, etc. now we are on the road again. We spent about an hour at the Pioneer Village at the campground.

Pioneer Village in Dawson Creek, BC

Not long after Dawson Creek, my two least favorite parts of travel came together - a four mile long winding descent with 6-10% grades followed immediately by a long metal grate suspension bridge.  



Gorgeous views and it wasn't as bad as it looked.

Black spruce forest and wildflowers

Mountains at last!!
