In this post, I talk about our trip through British Columbia and Yukon, Canada on days 57 to 65 of our Alaska RV trip.

British Columbia and Yukon

We cross the Canadian border with no problems. We are impressed with the beauty of British Columbia.

We get text messages on our Verizon phones and hotspot, saying that with our unlimited plan, calls, texts and cellular data are free, but we are limited to 0.5G of cellular data, per device, per day.

We drive to Gold Trail RV Park in Clinton, BC. The sites are $20 US or $25 CA. We only have US dollars at this point. The RV park is pretty tight, but we get a pull-through site. The owner has lots of jokes—he missed his calling as a comedian. I’m sure he tells the same jokes to everyone.

We walk around town, but it is early in the season and everything is closed. We don’t even see an ATM. They tell us next weekend is Victoria Day, and places will start to open. We go to the RV Park restaurant and order “Roadkill Ribs”. They are good.

The owner tells us about Barkerville. It is an old mining community, outside of Quesnel, that has been preserved and turned into a park. We decide to give it a try.

Quesnel and Barkerville, BC

Someone told us we would see more wildlife early in the morning. Our plan is to wake up at 6:00AM, make coffee, and stop at the first rest area for breakfast. We don’t see any wildlife, but we have a scenic view for breakfast.

We stop at Walmart in Quesnel, BC (the “s” is silent). We detach the car and drive to the visitor center to find out about Barkerville. This is the opening day for Barkerville.

The trip to Barkerville is very scenic. We see bears on the side of the road. We get to Barkerville around 2:45PM. The bad news is they close at 4:00PM. The good news is we get in for half price. We get to see everything, despite feeling a little rushed. We see bears and deer on the way back. We stop at Barkerville Brewing Company for some craft beer and smoked salmon.

Chetwynd and Dawson Creek, BC

We get up at 6:00AM again and drive to Hush Lake Rest Area for breakfast. Then we drive to Bijoux Falls Provincial Park. We eat lunch and take pictures of the falls and stellar jays. The next stop is Chetwynd visitors center. We walk around and look at the wood carvings throughout the town.

Fran goes to take a picture and drops her phone. It breaks. Fortunately, we have insurance. Unfortunately, they can’t ship a new phone to Canada. We have to wait until we get to Haines, AK. We drive on. It is raining and we are driving on muddy roads.  We stop at Walmart in Dawson Creek, BC. The back of the RV and our tow car are covered with mud.

We are at mile zero of the Alaskan Highway.

Fort Nelson and Liard River, BC

We see lots of wildlife on the trip. One time we have to stop for cariboo in the road. We also see sheep, bears, bison and a fox. It is a very scenic drive.

We stop at Triple G Hideaway RV park, in Fort Nelson. We get a pull-through site. They have a coin operated RV pressure wash. Our car looks like it was dipped in mud and the rear-view camera at the top of the RV is completely obscured. We get $20 in loonies (Canadian dollar coins). We keep feeding loonies while pressure washing the car and RV. We get $5 more and do the best we can. It is better, but not clean by any means.

It’s Victoria Day weekend in Canada. We get to Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park and the overflow camping is starting to fill up. We pay for one night of dry camping. They only take cash, and we use a combination of 16 Canadian and US dollars. It includes the use of the hot springs. There is a herd of bison close by. One comes into the campground.

We wake up early and go to the hot springs before breakfast.

Watson Lake, Whitehorse and Haines Junction, YT

We get a nice pull-through full hook-up spot at Downtown RV Park, in Watson Lake. We walk to the “Sign Post Forest” and the grocery store. We don’t disconnect the car. We take a nice hike around Wyatt Lake. We want to use the WiFi, and we discover that the first two hours are free, and then we have to buy more at the office.

We wake up early and stop for breakfast at the first rest area. I notice that the rear brakes on the Honda are hot. We towed it for about 15 minutes with the parking brakes on.

We drive to the Whitehorse visitors center and park in an RV spot. We get out and walk around. We stop at the Klondike Rib and Salmon for smoked salmon and bison, elk and wild boar meatball appetizers.

Our plan is to stay at Walmart, but we read that they no longer allow overnight parking. We go there to buy some groceries, and sure enough, there are signs posted all over.

We go to the Hi Country RV Park. They have a nice laundry and RV wash. We get up early, do laundry, wash the RV and car. This one works way better than the one in Fort Nelson, but the car is still far from clean.

Then, we drive to the visitors center and have lunch at the Klondike Rib and Salmon again . We have Alaskan halibut, fish and chips and a wild sockeye salmon burger. Then, we drive to Haines Junction and get a pull-through site at Fas Gas RV Park.

We’ve been on the road for 64 days and driven 6,100 miles. So far, we’ve spent $2,100 for gas and $1,600 for campgrounds. Tomorrow we will make it to Haines, Alaska.
