Stewart BC and Hyder Alaska

The drive today was reputed to be one of the most scenic in BC. Low ceilings and constant rain prevented us from seeing much of it. Things began to improve as we turned up the narrow, deep, valley that leads to Stewart. There is an ice field on the top of both sides of the valley that is melting. There are hanging glaciers on both sides of the road and a tremendous number of waterfalls that are over 1000 feet. It's sort of like Yosemite on steroids. We drove up to the bear viewing area but got skunked. We did see a few big salmon swimming up stream. We will give the bears another chance tomorrow. We are spending 2 nights here.
