Liard River Hot Springs, BC Saying that the Liard River Hot Springs is in the middle of nowhere would be a vast understatement. The springs are located in the extreme north of British Columbia. To give you an idea of how long it would take you to get to this place, if you were not...
Driving northwest from Edmonton it is a little strange to see signs for Alaska. Technically Edmonton is the last major city that you come across when driving to Alaska however the Alaska border is still over 1500 miles away. The city of Anchorage is about 400 miles past that. To put that in perspective, 1900...
As plans go with my Dad, everything is last minute. The night before he had called saying that he might come and meet us in Edmonton for the weekend but would not be able to make a decision until the next morning. This was fine for us as we were planning on going there anyway...
Heading north from the town of Banff we were excited to see Lake Louise. We had tried to book a spot at the nearby provincial campground but they were completely booked. So instead we were going to be staying in a lodge for the second time on the trip. There are two lodges at Lake...

Soon enough we pulled into Helena, the capitol of Montana. As we love to do when in capitol cities our first stop was the capital building itself. So far...
Traveling north from Wyoming to Montana was one of our checkpoints on this trip. This would be the last state that we would stop in before crossing the border into Canada, one step closer to getting to Alaska. This was also a new state for us in a way. In talking with a few people,...
It seemed almost surreal that we were leaving New Mexico. We had come there unexpectedly but had stayed there for so long it almost started to feel like home. If we were going to make it to Alaska however there was only one way to go…..North! Great Sand Dunes National Park – Colorado Julie had...
Leaving Santa Fe we were on our way to our last stop in New Mexico in the town of Taos. As before when we drove around Santa Fe, the drive to Taos was awesome. People generally don’t think of New Mexico being in the Rocky Mountains but it is. Taos itself sits at almost 7000...
