We car pooled for a group picture to Mile “0” of the Alcan
Highway in Dawson Creek. BC., a key military route in 1942 to Alaska. It officially ended in Delta Junction (mile
1422) or unofficially in Fairbanks (mile 1523). A huge undertaking, completed in 8 months and
12 days.

From there many of us went to
the Kiskatinaw River Bridge. This is an
original Alcan curved wooden bridge with a capacity of 20,000 kg or 44,000 lbs.

A bus picked us up at our park and we travelled to the
Sewell Game Farm. They prepared a
wonderfull meal of wild game and all the “fixin’s.” No one went away hungry. We then went on a hayride through the farm to
see wild boar, deer, antelope, sheep, elk, reindeer, musk ox and others.

Our group has become a close-knt “family.” What a fine group of people.
