    Dease Lake

    June 30, 2019 in Canada ⋅ ⛅ 66 °F

    Woke up to a few less mosquitos after a sort of marginal sleep night. Mosquitos -1 Tom-0 ! We have been aggressively killing every flaring insect in the RV, and I think we got most of them. We will see what happens tonight. Currently sitting on steps of very small college in Dease Lake so we can use there Wi-fi. Have not had cell service since we left Smithers. But beautiful drive, again! Yes, mountains, two black bears, and one small pretty little red fox...he reminded us if the Harleys little foxes!
    Pretty much just drive today, stopped at Bell 2 Lodge which is a base for a lot of heliskiing! Was there as one of the helicopters took of for some other purpose. Talked to a geologist who is doing quite a bit of exploration or surveying for gold. Apparently this area is pretty rich in gold, but very hard to mine due to remote location....pretty interesting talking to him.
    Lunch at a fairly large lake, Kinasken, but very quiet, especially for a three day weekend! Then got here mid afternoon, looking forward to a hot shower!
    Missing everyone, but really enjoying our trip!
