The Communities of Stewart, British Columbia and Hyder,
Alaska are located at the head of the 90 mile long Portland Canal. Today we are Stewart, British Columbia,
Canada. We meet up at Fish Creek Wild
Life Observation Point in Hyder, Alaska at 10:30 am for a ride share to Salmon
Glacier by way of the Salmon Glacier Road.

| Share Ride to Salmon Glacier |
We headed out on the Glacier Highway. The Glacier Highway traverses through some of
the most beautiful scenery in the province.

This route provides access to some of BC’s richest
reserves of natural resources including copper, gold & silver. You can observe over 20 glacier formations
overlooking the Highway, giving it the name ‘Glacier Highway’
