Back to the Lower 48 - Yellowhead Highway New Hazelton to Prince George

We leave 'KSan campground and get back to the infamous bridge where I did in the steps.  Gary pulls over so I can get a shot of Hagwilget Canyon
Fortunately, the fog has lifted enough to get a picture
Glad I'm not driving over this one
A shot from the other side

and we're on the road again
Our first pull over is at a picnic area overlooking the Moricetown Canyon and Falls.  Moricetown is a First Nations Reserve and and Village and the oldest settlement in British Columbia. 

Tucson and I take a walk down to get a better view
Tucson enjoys the spray from the Falls
You can Aboriginal people netting salmon in July, August and September.  Somewhere along the river there is a spot the non-natives can fish - it is called Idiot Rock.
Back on the road, we drive by Hudson Bay Mountain and Glacier Gulch

Soon we are back in Houston and the world's largest fly fishing rod at 60' long

We also see the Hungry Hill Grizzly Bear we missed on the way up
It's a long and winding road . . .
We stop to see the Tintagel Cairn.  The center stone in the cairn  was once part of the Norman walls of Tintagel Castle, the supposed birthplace of King Arthur
Just the other side of Prince George we pull over to Mama Yeh RV Park for the night. 
We are the only campers so it is nice and quiet
