Stop # 7 July 24-26
Got up this morning early, at 5:30, and drove 9 miles on a switch-back road to reach Mount Edith Cavell Lake and Angel Glacier, hiked about 30 min. more and reached the lake and glacier. The lake was full of ice chunks that fell from the glacier, originally the glacier looked like angel wings, but has melted quite a bit and doesn't look like that anymore. Great walk, got back to trailer and pulled out by 8:40. Traveled about 237 miles today, to Prince George, British Columbia, stopping at two waterfalls on the way, Overlander and Rearguard falls, both are wide and alot of water running over the rocks, but not very long. Had a buffet dinner planned for all, great food, under new management, the cook came out and talked to us, some even went back the next day.
Next two days, we didn't really do much. Drove downtown, checked out the town parks, which there was quite a few, just to see the town. There were mall strips, Wal-Mart, Costcos, Canadian Tire, Home Depot, Princess Auto, which we visited most. Our last night in Prince George, we had an ice cream social, root beer floats, for all, and then a driver's meeting.
