Dease Lake, British Columbia, Canada: 676 kms (2157 kms)

Everyone, bag your lives and get the first available flight to Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada. Buy yourself an unnecessarily large RV - because everyone else has one - and head down the Alaskan Highway to Junction 37. At the only restaurant in town pop-in and try some of Dennis´ delicious blueberry pie. And tell him that Stuart says hello. After that take the first right on to the Stewart Cassiar Highway. After about 200 kms, just before Dease Lake, in the shadow of some damn fine scenery, drive down a little dirt track, erect a fence to keep out the bears and start building your dream home. Then we´ll be neighbours! This is just a pipe dream, of course, but this place is stunning, and it hasn´t even started snowing here yet!!

Sounds very very cool indeed. BC must be the best place on earth for everything. I started to google Dease Lake and found someone else biking the route. Go to wwww.clarkejohn.com/page4. Some of the pictures look like where you have described.

Take it easy

Gobblin' up the kms then Stu. Struggling with fitting the tall screen myself - the first of a multitude of tasks and I am baffled! Any tips!?
