Day 17 - May 7 - SLOWER DAYS CAN BE ENJOYABLE AS WELL

Fort Nelson, BC is most well known as a Gateway to the Northern Rockies and a key service hub on the Alaska Highway. It is also known for its rich history in fur trading, the oil and gas industry, forestry and as a scenic entry to the northern wilderness.

The Fort Nelson Demonstration Forest is a 100 hectare, easily accessible forest in the northwest corner of town designed for education and recreation. It features managed trails for hiking and biking in the summer and cross country skiing in the winter. We gave it a whirl today, between seasons, not as easy as it sounds.

The trail started out beautifully...another gorgeous day.


Soon it became a bit muddy and spongy in spots.


It only got worse - a little wet.


Soggy with ice and snow rounded out the battle.


Finally decided to grin and bear it...and try not to fall. Hi Everybody!
