Today I traveled a little over 6 hours, 556 kms or 345 miles.
A beautiful sunrise, then I crossed Summit Pass and the Tetsa River and Steamboat Mountain.
I saw 2 elk and lots of sheep and horse farms after Ft. Nelson. This area is big for natural gas exploration, so truck traffic was heavy and many natural gas pipelines and stacks with flares can be seen from Sikanni to Pink Mountain.
I don’t know what this was,
but the horizontal cylinder had some wicked glowing fire in it.
This is an internet steal photo,
since I couldn’t get close to take a picture of a gas well.
In case you wondered where Sasquatch is, he is alive and well, or should I say statuesque and wooden at Pink Mountain, British Colombia, Mile 147 of the Alaska Highway!

I stayed overnight in Charlie Lake at the Ross H Maclean Rotary RV Park. It was going to close at the end of the month, so it was almost empty. The sites have no trees, but it is all fenced in next to a nature preserve and park. It has very clean laundry facilities etc. The sunset here was gorgeous.
Note: the website link that comes up when you google this park does not work. The park is only about 10 miles west of Ft. St. John, so very convenient to get gas, groceries etc.
