Alaska highway onto the Stewart Cassiar highway

Today's drive from our pullout on the side of the road after we got onto the Stewart Cassiar highway to Totoga lake.

We drove into Boya Lake campground on the way, stopped and took a few pics,

but was way to early in the day to stay, also had no more gas for our generator, and we wanted to try this off the grid camping as we traveled through this area, highway 37 Stewart Cassiar.

We stopped at the Dease river first Nation fuels and no fuel Closed due to COVID-19, residents only. Hmm 🤔 I thought we were opening up in BC, we continue.


Next stop Dease Lake store, gast station. We fill up the truck with deisel, gas can too, while Polly gets a few things for dinner. Dease Lake is the center of this area, and much going on here, we just passed through though.

On we go looking for that just right stop. We looked at a few pullouts, rest stops and none  were just right. Till we got here. What a beautiful place. Mountains all around, and yet after we get the jacks down and slides out. I gas up the generator, pull the cord once, vroom. Thanks again Jo & Lorne Hilmo for this great genset.


I push the satellite 📡 button and after a few rounds, we have connection. Voila, we get to watch Judge Dredd with Sylvester Stallone. 😆


And look out the window over this big lake at these beautiful mountains. Can life get better 😉


I make us a drink, and we watch a few minutes of the show, cheers Polly says, and we clink glasses. Not long after Polly is busy cooking the pork chops she bought while at Dease Lake.

I take a few pictures, and walk around a bit, such a nice place to stay the night.

As we eat dinner I see a loon paddle by, looking for his dinner. I say to Polly, I'm sure we will hear them tomorrow morning. 🤗

A big dump truck pulls in, he's camped here too, in the trees, a worker at the lake. Nice.

Rains happing now, on and off all day. Hope tomorrow brings some dry weather. 

OOff to Stewart 😁♥️
