We get a late start this morning. Folks on both sides of us left early, never heard them leave. Today we leave around 8:30 and make a quick stop at McDonalds for coffee and a muffin to go.
Today we are crossing the Muskwa Mtn Range, much more interesting terrain than the flat and rolling forests yesterday. See lots of wildlife, Bear, Sheep and a Caribou. The sheep are shedding their winter coats and are looking pretty mangy.
Stop for gas at Toad River Lodge a fairly busy place. Another unpaved gas station. The interesting part is the pump does not take credit cards. You pump your gas, then park your car, then go in and tell them how much gas you pumped and then you pay. Good thing old people have cell phone cameras.

We get to Liard Hot Spring around 2:00 and get one of the last spots. A couple got talking with Linda as I was parking and were interested in the Travato since they were looking a various Class B RVs. After we give them a “tour”, Linda makes lunch and I go back the office to check in for the site we took. After lunch, I investigate why our bathroom vent fan is not working. The switch is bad, hopefully I can jury rig another switch when we get to Whitehorse.
After I clean up and get our bathing suits and towels and head to the Hot Springs. Another warm day 85 degrees. Great, a hot day at the hot springs. One unique feature of this RV park is there is an electric fence around the perimeter to keep the wildlife out. We have to go through a hand opening gate to walk to the Hot Springs. I can’t pass up acting like I am getting electrocuted to entertain my wife, not realizeing there was another couple approaching. She laughs and he, I am sure is thinking “what a dork”.
Electric Fence
The hot spring was nice, except there were a lot of good size flies all around. BC version of horse flies, but bigger. We walk back to the RV and make dinner, fortunately the files are not too bad at the campsite.
