Sam’s View
Today we drove to Stewart, BC. When we got there we went and
saw a grizzly bear!
Summer’s View
Today we were trying to make it to the junction of 37 and
16, but a wrong turn was made and we ended up going about 25 miles down 37A to
Stewart, BC / Hyder, AK. They are separated by a border crossing. It was a 25
mile drive down a gorgeous valley with a river running alongside and waterfalls
everywhere, ending at the little town. When we got to the campground there, a
caravan was staying there. We found out this is the bear viewing place to be!
How cool!
We drove across the border to a little station of the
Tongass National Forest to a boardwalk area along the river where the salmon
run and the bears come down to fish. They said the bears had almost had their
fill for the season, but we were lucky enough to see one of their “regulars” –
a HUGE grizzly named Monica, who entertained all with her fishing, eating, and
prancing!
This wrong turn became a right! J
