Left Ft. Nelson about 10 after another quick stop @ the visitor Ctr for the wifi. Today we saw several critters. This may be a long post but mostly pix. It’s a beautiful drive with varied scenery. We saw a couple bear right off.
We had some good climbs to do 9% & one 10% grades. Below we were @ a switch back & got this pix of the Bubars behind us.
This pix Steve thought it look a little like Mt Rushmore. Can you tell that this is another set of bears :-) Just wait It’s not going to be the last of the Black Bears :-)
We found the Stone Sheep down by the rd. because they like to eat the salt used on the roads in the winter. Closer to Muncho Lake there is an area where wildlife viewing is supposed to be good because of the natural salt & minerals in the falling rock area. People sometimes think these are goats but they are Sheep.
Below some pix of the different signage symbols used in Canada.
Below right you see a truck coming around a corner and a young Moose or Caribou in the road. It was frightened or confused & wasn’t sure where it was going to go The truck coming one way & us the other. I took several pix as it decided to go to the river. So far along the way we have seen 2 road kill where probably a truck has hit an animal. The Caution signs are real.
Muncho Lake is a very big long lake. @ absolutely Magnificent.
When you get there there are 2 Provincial parks. The first is Strawberry pt & the 2nd is McDonald campground & boat launch. We stayed @ McDonald.
That’s it for now Will do a separate post of our spot @ McDonald. We stayed there 2 nites.
