Hyder to Dease Lake BC




Today we left Hyder for Dease Lake, about 245 miles. I filled with gas in Stewart (near Hyder) and Calculated I got 8.4 MPG. Probably because we drove 50 and 55 all the way and the last 40 miles was down hill. We all (all 20 rigs) left at our own pace and met at Bell II (Bell two) about 100 miles up the road. three of the vehicles were searched reentering Canada at Stewart (really ridiculous since we had only gone about a mile into Alaska) Fortunately we weren't among the lucky ones that got searched. We saw about three bears and one moose on the way to Bell II but for some reason didn't see anything the rest of the day. Traffic is pretty light going south maybe 6 or 7 vehicles an hour. Last night in Hyder we had a halibut dinner paid for by the Tour.
