Yellowhead Highway 16

We looked at the map and saw the big Maple Leaf on the symbol for the Yellowhead Highway 16 and got excited that we would be on an "interstate".  Wrong.  But we are off the Cassiar which was a bit of a nail-biter.   The Yellowhead is better - a little more traffic - we may see 10 cars in 50 miles instead of 1. 

 

This rest area had a cairn with the central stone from the Norman walls of Tintagel Castle, reputed birthplace of King Arthur.

We stopped at Shady Rest RV Park and actually had grass and large pull-through sites.  Flowers everywhere and internet.  We knew civilization was just around the corner.

 

Oh, and we were right...   Prince George has a Costco.  Boy, who knew a store would make Linda and Cheryl so happy. 

 

Plans to stop at Jasper and Banff have been squelched again.  We have been calling all the campgrounds in the area - all are full.  So we are working on Plan B.  Hope our plan works...
