🚐 The Heart of the Northern Rockies: Wood Bison, Hot Springs & The Alcan's Highest Point! 🌲

Our journey south from Alaska continues, and we’re so excited to share that our next video, Episode 20, is now live! This chapter takes us into the heart of the Northern Rockies in British Columbia, a stretch of the Alaska Highway that is world-renowned for its stunning scenery and abundant wildlife. 🌲

Join us as we leave Watson Lake behind and start with a visit to the incredible "Oasis of Warmth," the Liard River Hot Springs. ♨️ We'll take you on a walk along the boardwalks through the lush, almost tropical-feeling forest that surrounds the pools. The surprises continue as we drive along the stunning turquoise shores of Muncho Lake and have an unforgettable encounter with a majestic herd of wild Wood Bison right on the side of the road. 🦬

The adventure takes a very real turn as evening approaches. We'll share the full story of our "campsite conundrum"—a frustrating failed boondocking attempt that led to the unexpected discovery of an abandoned WWII airstrip! It’s a classic example of how, in RV life, sometimes Plan A doesn't work out, but it often leads to something interesting. 😉

The next day is all about elevation and rewards. We take you on the climb to the highest point on the entire Alaska Highway at Summit Pass, navigate some sketchy road construction, and finally resolve our camping situation with a truly unbelievable stroke of luck. Of course, no trip through this valley is complete without a stop at the Tetsa River Lodge for what might just be the best cinnamon bun on the Alcan. 😋

This was a jam-packed couple of days filled with breathtaking beauty, unexpected challenges, and simple rewards. We hope you enjoy coming along for the ride! 🚐

Watch the full episode above and let us know in the YouTube comments what your favorite part was! We love hearing about your own Alaska Highway experiences as well.

Happy Trails, 

Bob and Dang
