Since the last post, we've been on a long run back from Skagway (A) down the Cassier Highway (C-B) to Hyder AK (B),through central BC, to Mt Baker in Washington (D), and then to Portland (E) for Jessica's birthday (a "few" days late).
Note - OK, I know the letter sequence is out of wack, but we've been wandering around for almost two months so cut me some slack.
As usual on the return run, I'm getting lazy and forgoing the running commentary, (much to the reader's relief). Below are the highlights.

Haines Highway AK & Yukon |
|
RR built in 1900 and still carrying passengers, (but not me) |
|
I think they forgot something?? |
|
Just another pretty mountain. |
|
A jade mine on the Cassiar Highway. The bolder is a solid hunk of jade, |
|
It MIGHT be jade! (But it will look good in the garden anyway.) |
|
Now this is a decent RV park. |
|
This is a walk from the above RV Park |
|
ANOTHER pretty mountain. |

Road grizzly on the way to Hyder AK |

They're friendly. |

Waterfalls from glacier about 2,000 ft above us. |
|
Mt Baker Washington.
(World record annual snowfall of 1,137 inches in one season.) |
|
Made it to Portland for J's B-Day |
Going camping for a week or so with Jess and Scott then Who Knows?
Good night from Portland

So you ARE still alive! Glad you are able to spend time in PDX... wish I was there too!
ReplyDeleteIf only every RV park had such beautiful hikes :)
Something about the shot of Mom in the middle of all the bear pix seemed wrong, like you threw her out there as bait. What an adventure! Now you're headed back to mice and spiders. Almost as cool...
