Jasper or Bust

It has been a long day, but we did make up for some lost time. We traveled 575 miles from Watson Lake, YT to Fort St John, BC through some amazing country. Muncho Lake and Stone Mountain Provincial Parks are some of the best roads and vistas we have traveled through. Along the way we saw numerous packs of Bison, Caribou, and Sheep.



The crossing from Alaska back to British Columbia was a hoot. The officer asked me where I was from and I replied, "Boston". He then asked why I had an Alaska plate on my motorcycle. The look I got from him when I explained the trip was priceless.

We traveled quite a bit south today. It is the first time it has been "dark" in 10 days. The midnight sun is all it is cracked up to be and I will miss it.

We are going to travel to Jasper NP and hopefully camp for the first time this trip so I will not update this tomorrow night. I will leave you with a one for the road.
