Stone Sheep, Stone Mountain Provincial Park, British Columbia
They are very good camouflaged in the Mountain's
Stone sheep look for salt, left over from winter snow-clearing operations, to lick in the gravel alongside the Alaska Highway in Stone Mountain Provincial Park in British Columb
We finally can switch from a bad 26 foot to a very nice 14 foot U-Haul.
The Staff, at the Anthill complex Fort St. John, BC Canada was very nice.Thanks again for all your help Kim & Joy !
Originally built as a supply route during World War II, the Alaska Highway traverses 1,422 miles from Dawson Creek, British Columbia to Delta Junction, Alaska, where it joins the Richardson Highway going to Fairbanks, 98 miles further north. Once a gravel-covered, pothole-filled route best suited for vehicles with extra gasoline and armor plating, today's two-lane, paved Alaska Highway winds and rolls across some of the continent's most spectacular scenery.
The first 613 miles of the Alaska Highway pass through Canada, where it is known as British Columbia Highway 97. At mile 1221, it crosses the international border and becomes Alaska Route 2. The Alaska Highway ends at Delta Junction, Alaska, at mile 1442.
