A fall week in the Kootenays
Took off for a weeks fall wandering in BC, doing a hot springs/craft beer loop.
Leaving Penticton, to the Fauquier Ferry..Nakusp...Revelstopke, Golden, Kimberly, Creston and last overnight in Grand Forks. Perfect weather..a couple minus 0c nights. No traffic, to speak of.
Ferry park boondocking.
Halfway Hotsprings
Critters...
Luccier Hot Springs
Train history in Fruitvale
Golden..Whitetooth Craft house.
Rossland Craft Beer
We travel a pretty barebones style..boondocking and making our own meals. One of the biggest hurdles we/I had to overcome was the need to arrange for a hairwash/dryer adventure every 3 or 4 days. Yes, the rec centers are fabulous, but only if you are in a town. Out in the weeds, less so. I had a plan...and it works like magic. I picked up a 3000w inverter, had it wired with a good heavy wire. When needed, clamp to truck battery, run an extension inside, start the engine...and let'r rip.
Such a nice time!
