It was backed up for a mile with no movement at all for about one hour. It is a Canadian long weekend (Heritage Day Mon.) so some delay was to be expected. By the time we were processed it was exactly 4PM, a 3 hr. delay! When we got to our destination in the St. Mary KOA the hostess said she heard there was a terrorist threat. We even had to give up our place in line when a Canadian officer said they had refused an American entry into their country so we obliged. Not a good day especially with all this rain drenching us during hook up. This weekend will be spent touring Glacier and hopefully the Road to the Sun under sunny skies.Hyder Salmon RunWe should reach Hyder this week. Any idea if the Salmon are running? Anyone seen any bear actifity? Thanks.Anchorage campgroundIs there another campground in/near Anchorage besides the Golden Nugget? We stayed there in '08 & have it listed as our worst. We are in Lake McLeese,BC in Kelly's Campground for 2 days of R&R after 4 days of one night stands. Nice site on the lake but like AK the mosquitoes are here. Will stock up on Deet here before entering AK. Thinking about opening up a Deet Store in AK to offset fuel costs.Re: US 2 North DakotaDid that road in 2008 on our way to AK. It is not for those in a hurry. It's a road for a cautious approach, especially when approaching towns. It's the kind of road I , personally, like to travel because I'm not in a hurry!Re: Spokane-rte 395NDonn, thanks for the insight, leaving Spokane tomorrw & depending on the weather, which here in Butte has been lousy, that route looks more interesting & cheaper (until the winery visits, of course).Re: Spokane-rte 395NI'm going to Prince Gearge % thought the 3-33-97 looked the easiest.Spokane-rte 395NTowing a 30' 5er, any comments on Spokane-rte 395 north to the Canadian border? Thanks.Re: West yellowstone to I-90 WestThanks paulj, I'll check out 97 to see how it fits our fits our final route to AK. looks like a good traffic by-pass.Re: West yellowstone to I-90 Westpaulj, I'm heading west to Seattle & I-5 N on our way to Alaska. What's the bridge outage & detour. Is there a fast way for me to bypass the bridge from I-90? I'm leaving Yellowstone tomorrow & expect to be there in 3 days. Thanks.West yellowstone to I-90 WestPulling a 30' 5er out of W. Yellowstone, which route N. 191 or 287 to I-90 W.? Thanks.
