We're back home now from our recent motorcycle trip.
Starting here at the coast, Harv and I drove to Vernon where we spent the night with our riding friends, Don and Bev. The next day the four of us on two motorcycles, headed to McBride where Dave and Marg joined us.
We rode several hours that day and spent the next night in Smithers. We then headed to our most northern destination - Stewart, BC and it's nearest neighbour, Hyder, Alaska.

A stop to watch the Native Salmon fishing at Moricetown.
Some of the glaciers on the road to Stewart.
In the mining town of Stewart we strolled the streets to see the sights.
Stewart has a rich history of mining although today it is mostly a tourist town.
After dinner we headed to Hyder, Alaska - no US Border crossing going from BC into Alaska but we had to stop for the Canadian Border on the way back - go figure!
We were able to watch the bears fishing in Hyder Alaska -
The salmon were spawning and we had a fabulous view from a walkway constructed above the creek for all the bear watching tourists.
More on our trip later.

The next morning we drove the kilometer or 2 back to Hyder where we feasted on enormous sticky Cinnamon buns in a room entirely papered in 1, 2 and 5 dollar bills,
each signed by its donor.
More on our trip later.
