... fire. We were relieved that it was as the commercial park across the street had already closed for the season. It sure seems early for some of these places to start closing, but the attendant at our previous park in Watson Lake had told us they were closing next week. <br><br>The Liard River area is spectacular. In early times, the Kaska First Nations people lived and hunted the area. Later, trappers and prospectors discovered the hot pools and in 1835 ...

... driving through Soup. You weeble and wobble and hope to not fall down. Brad did great! We also hit a lot of steel grated bridges - also not fun on bikes. But we made it. Super hot again, at our lunch stop it was 38 degrees - in the shade. Now we're hiding out in an air conditioned hotel room for the night. Long day tomorrow, going to Grande Prairie, AB.<br><br>Distance Travelled Today: 319 miles or 513 km<br>Travelled By: motorcycle<br><br>

... looked quite good. The barstools were saddles and there were lots of animal mounts.<br><br>We had a drink with Hazel and Ron and sat with Charles and Julie Hard from Texas. He is a tugboat captain.<br><br>Art went to bed and I went to play cards with Beverly, Casper and Joan. I got back around 11:30 or so and got on the computer. Lo and behold, my sister, Rita, was on and we had a nice conversation via instant messenger.<br><br><br>

... that is still being used today. It truly is an architectural piece of art.<br> <br> The next portion of our drive today wound through lush farm lands of the Peace River District. As we descended to the Peace River there were good views of the Peace River Valley and the industrial community of Taylor. Bridging the peace was one of the first goals of the Alaska ...

... We stopped for lunch at Muncho Lake. The lake is 7.5 miles long and is set in a stunning location nestled between two large mountains. We stopped an hour or so later at Toad River for a cup of tea and a leg stretch. The Toad River Lodge offers a ten room motel and campground. Inside the shop that doubles as a restaurant and gift shop hung 7000 hats that had been donated by various travellers. We continued along the Alaska Highway, through the Rocky Mountains. The Alaska ...

... Buckinghorse River Lodge that says it keeps the truckers happy so in I went for their beef sandwich special. One of the things I have always wanted to do was to ride the original Alaska Highway over Trutch Mountain,, but I have never had the right bike to do it. Well today it happened. It was challenging, but it was done, and to top it off I saw my first black bear. I even have a short video to prove it. For you trivia buffs the lowest point on the Alaska Highway ...

... While we were in Taylor, BC we stopped by the Lone Wolf golf course and saw the "Worlds Largest Golf Ball." Today has been a weird geo-caching day, as it seems that either our GPS's aren't calibrated right or something is interfering with them, as we couldn't seem to pin point on any one spot and well, geo wise it was a very off day with only 4 caches found. Oh well, we saw some new things we hadn't ever seen before. Tomorrows plans consist ...

... to the two pools that are open to the public. The farther one, which we chose to try first, is deep and totally natural, except for wooden steps for entry. The only bench is a partially submerged fallen tree on the opposite side. The closer pool (pictured) is hotter, and it has been developed just enough to make it more comfortable. Gravel covers the mud bottom, and a small dam creates a waterfall under which you can sit and let the hot water pour over your shoulders. Divine!

Après une nuit de sueur car il a fait très chaud, c'est la route sur 457km jusqu'à fort Nelson que nous atteignons aux alentours de 2.30. Il a fait beau sauf pour une averse de 10 minutes. Maintenant il mouillasse et l'air se rafraichit un peu, ce qui est bienvenue. La route est dans l'ensemble très droite et on monte tout le temps. Les points d'intérêts ont été assez rares si ce n'est pour le pont et la rivière Peace à Taylor et un arrêt pour dîner à un site ...
