Prince George to Boston Bar, British Columbia

8/24/13

We depart the civility of Prince George today to continue south along Highway 97 toward the Fraser River Canyon area.  Roadways are good with wider shoulders as we climb and descend a modestly rolling countryside.  As we pass Grand Cache we note this area is referred to as the Arizona of British Columbia as the area is desert-like except directly along the river valley where hay bales are in abundance is quite green irrigated pastures.


South of Grand Cache we enter deeper into Fraser River Canyon with towering majestic mountains now again surrounding us.  We stop for the evening in Boston Bar, BC at the Canyon Alpine RV Park.  We enjoy our last evening with our traveling companions Bob and Sharon Relyea celebrating our trip with a dinner at a local restaurant.
