Cache Creek to Prince George BC

Today we traveled from Cache Creek to Prince George BC which is about 250 miles. I had been looking at the map and had an idea how far it was. I saws the first highway sign that said it was 400+. It took me awhile to realize the signs were in kilometers. All day long I was converting 50,60,90, and 100 kilometers per hour to miles per hour. (100 km/h is ~ 62 mph. We saw more pretty scenery. Lots of trees and rivers. It wasn't quite as green as Washington but pretty impressive. When we checked in to the RV park here the guy was telling us about the bears that visit the park. He said he hadn't seen them for a few days but there was a mom and two cubs that graze in the field. Later in the year they create problems with his garbage and actually frightened some guests.He had to use his "bear banger" to scare the bears away. Tomorrow we will head to Hazelton where the tour starts.
