Abbotsford Border Crossing

Anyone have any info on the border crossing at Abbotsford? Looks like they are open 24 hours. Delays, best time of day etc.

I cross it from Canada yesterday (Monday) at noon.
100 minutes wait on RV lane.
Going there a month ago took 20 minutes.

Roosville is pretty laid back, too. A small customs building at the border. Crossed there in 2015 on way to Banff, with no problems.

The Abbotsford crossing is known to us as the Sumas Wa. crossing.
Usually is very easy. traffic can be heavy during peak commute times.
Have your passport, dogs rabies certificate, ready to hand the agent.
If you are crossing with permitted guns, read the rules at the Canadian fire arms centre web page. Have that paper work ready also.

If you are coming from the east ( like Ks) a better place to cross is Highway 97 north. ( Oroville to Osoyoos ) they seem to be more laid back and not so uptight.

Bring valid WHTI compliant identification, answer all questions truthfully, don't smuggle, no firearms/ammo without doing the homework and with all required accompanying paperwork completed. If Alaska bound, suggest shipping any handguns and some semi-automatic centrefire (EBR) rifles in advance. Long guns (most shotguns, bolt action rifles, some non-EBR style semi-auto small mag capacity < or = 5 rounds rifles, most .22LR rifles) are much easier to import for transit.
Easy peasy?
