Mary and Chris left us the next morning catching the ferry to Port Hardy and we did the necessary laundry and restocking the trailer to continue our adventure. After spenting one more night in Prince Rupert we set off.

We travelled up the Stewart Cassier Highway and stayed one night in a free campsite at Kitwanga.
Next stop was at Meziadin Lake Provincial Park for 2 nights. During the day we travelled to Stewart and Hyder visiting the Bear and Salmon Glaciers.

Sept 3rd to Sept 20th 2014

We started this trip with a stay at Manning Park with the Ridge Meadows Outdoor Club at their annual summer camp. We hiked our legs out for 4 days.

Following that we had arranged to meet my sister Dianne and husband at Waterton Lakes for a few days. We arrived to good weather but that changed almost immediately as we received about a foot of snow over the next couple days.

When the roads cleared up we followed them back to Calgary and then we headed to Banff, a visit with Iva in Nacusp and then spent a couple days in Kelowna before heading home.






June 16th to July 10 2014

Time sure flys when you are having fun. Hard to believe its been so long since I posted here.

We spent from early June to mid July 2014 in Oregon. We stsrted out at the Northwood Owners association rally in La Grande Oregon, our second rally with them.

After the ralley we toured central oregon and headed south-west so we could travel up the entire Oregon coast.
I think it might just fit!
