Thanks Crumm and trackhead! Just got back to Haines this afternoon. No internet in Canada. We had a great trip, slept in the camper every night except for 4 nights in Portland. Mostly stayed in WA state parks along the east side of the Cascades and in Canada managed to find places to park well off the road for free. Forest service roads in BC are a great place to get way off the highway and are dead quiet. In WA the BLM had great off hwy camping and exploring! In Canada forest service roads were pretty easy to spot if you were looking, but some areas were just non existent tho. The section between Ft Saint John to about 50 miles south of Ft Nelson were off limits because of all the oil and gas activity going on both sides of the road. After that it was good boonie camping all the way to Watson Lake and beyond. Had a great soak at Liard Hot Springs and then found a nice plowed back road that took us way back and onto the old Alcan hwy.
A great hiking place is Umtanum trail off Hwy 821 north out of Yakima.
Okanogan back country road up around Conconully NW of Omak:
Off road camping along the Alaska Hwy in northern BC:
The folded mountains near Muncho lake is a fascinating place if you are into geology and seeing plate tectonics in action!
It was a great trip, love the little Adventurer camper!
