Exchanging Views: A peaceful, "big" trek home

Looking for home - Charlie Lake, Fort St John.

Fort St John - Lloydminster

Dawson Creek - Mile "O"

2237 kilometres long and we didn't see a single parking meter.

Who's he calling grizzly?

After finally passing through Mile "O" of the Alaska Highway the homeward bound leg of our holiday saw us travel through the scenic and historic Peace River country, along the "Grizzly Trail" and finally the northern lakes area.

This is "Lesser Slave Lake" - imagine how big 'Not so Lesser' Slave Lake is.

Again we encountered some beautiful scenery and the occasional wildlife. This time of year many of the fields are a sea of green and yellow - although some of the canola, wheat and other crops has already been harvested.

Rolling Hills!

Inspecting the crop.

As with many of the rural communities around Lloyd, most of the hamlets, villages and towns we passed through take considerable pride in their communities; clean, tidy, proud of their past and hopeful for the future.
Naturally being in Alberta we had the opportunity to see some of the world's LARGEST things and a few significant icons.
