Temps: 57 to 82 degrees. Very cloudy with low ceiling leaving Stewart but after 40 miles outside of Stewart the low ceiling of clouds went away and partly cloudy skies for the rest of the day.
Last nite we went across the border and into Hyder; tried to see bears catching the salmon. But.... no salmon, so no bears. The salmon are running late so we were out of luck on that idea.
It is noteworthy to say that there is no border control going from Canada into the U.S. at Hyder. There is border control, requiring a passport, for the return into Stewart, Canada. I guess that says something about Hyder! Very small town, with no roads leading outside of Hyder to Northern Alaska, so I guess it is safe.
We departed Stewart at 7:45 a.m. rode the same 40 miles back to Route 37, seeing the glaciers and water falls again on the way out. The rest of the 430 miles we rode today was high rolling hills / small mountains for the morning and turning into smaller rolling hills all the way into Prince George. Nice ride day but noting of interest in terms of sights to see.
Rocketman and the Zen Master got into the ride as the day went on. The more miles we clicked off, the more MPH they wanted to ride! We made good time arriving here around 4:30 p.m. and checked into the Best Western in downtown.
Tomorrow we head for Pemberton - near Whistler
