Fort St. John to Prince George

Well I have been in Prince George now for over 24 hours, but lets review the first leg of my Social Media Camp Victoria 2011 Roadtrip or better known as #SMCV11RoadTrip.

The drive isn’t all that exciting, especially if you drive it continuously, but this was only my second time driving this highway and the first time was going in the other direction. I started off by heading south out of Fort St John, but quickly jumped onto the Braden Road, which I might add was still quite dusty. The Braden Road took me to Highway 97 in the west bound direction.

I stopped in Chetwynd, BC for lunch and a break. Chetwynd is best known for their Chainsaw Carvings, no? I’m really not sure.  It was a good break and as I was trying to take my time on this stretch of the trip, I sat in the visitor centre parking lot watching people pass by on the highway.

The drive between Chetwynd and Prince George is known as the Pine Pass. It known to be a beautiful drive and also a narrow one. I didn’t find it all that narrow, there again I have traveled the highway from Banff to Chilliwack a couple time and I find some of those roads nuts.

I didn’t see any wildlife and the sun stayed out for my entire drive. Take a look at some of the photos I got along the way.

Out of town for a bit

Well I think this a better time than any to write this. I’m currently sitting at a road construction on the way to Prince George. Although this won’t be posted until I get to Internet in probably Prince George.

I’m off now, out of Fort St John for a couple weeks for various things. I’m on my way to Prince George to meet up with Andrew who is already there for a Chamber AGM, then on Tuesday we will begin our drive to Victoria for the Social Media Camp Conference.

We may stop in Vancouver for a night before continuing onto Victoria. The trip is going to be a good one, because I said so and because this is part of Canada I haven’t seen much off and I’m happy to be getting the chance.

Keep coming back for more posting on my travel. First one being the trip from Fort St John to Prince George.
