We were a little late getting underway today due to the waterline repair that needed to be completed. At around 1:00, we rolled out and started down the Cassiar Highway. The Cassiar is an almost 500 mile secondary north-south road that connects Watson Lake with the Yellowhead Highway, a main east-west road that begins on the Pacific coast at Prince Rupert and continues west to Prince George and untold kilometers beyond that. The road has a lot of negative comments about it on the web. It is narrow with sharp shoulders and unguarded drop-offs, especially on the north end, but even in that section we feel that the negative comments are unwarranted. It is necessary, however, to think ahead because of the lack of services for long stretches. We had originally planned to take two days for the trip, but due to the late start, we decided to make it three. We had a late arrival at the Dease Lake RV Park, which was barely ordinary. Milepost 7152.
