After driving another few miles, you are back in BC again and on your way to the glacier. Salmon is the fifth largest glacier in Canada, and the largest one you can drive to in Canada. It was very impressive.
Well, I have to tell you about the drive down the Cassiar highway. You may recall in a previous post that I mentioned our friend Larry, who we had dinner with after Sue caught her salmon, told me the Cassiar was 500 miles of frost heaves and potholes. Come to find out, Larry has quite a sense of humor. Other than a short 25 mile section, it has been a wonderful road. In fact, yesterday we saw 6 black bears during our drive, and not one frost heave in sight. What a jokester! I tried my best to talk Sue out of this section of road after talking to Larry, and I'm very glad she didn't agree.
Unfortunately, it is really remote, so I haven't posted in some time. And I may not be able to post again for a few days. But the scenery is just spectacular. We have a lakeside campsite now, which is very nice since they are having record breaking heat here. It 's probably burning up in Atown, but here it's pretty toasty too- 90 yesterday. The lake water felt pretty nice.
Till next time-

You look very comfy in your camp recliner Dave. Even better than your big chair at home. In fact, you now know, that the weather in A-town has been much cooler than normal. Just for your return, temps no higher than 85F!
