This morning we broke camp at Boya Lake and continued our drive along the Cassiar Highway. We encountered a few bouts of construction, but nothing to slow us down too much. The Cassiar Highway is a beautiful drive; narrow and quiet, but with stunning scenery. The gentle but weary Cassiar mountains eventually gave way to the more sprightly Coastal and Stikine Ranges.
The weather was quite erratic; beginning with scattered clouds, we could see profuse showers around us. Eventually they caught up with us, and we spent some time driving in the rain, then it became sunny, then we drove in the rain while the sun shone, being entertained with the occasional rainbow.
We detoured onto Highway 37A, the spur road to Steward and Hyder. An interesting anomaly, Hyder is a small Alaskan town that is right on the Alaska BC border, but can only be reached by BC.
