BC Provincial Park Heaven

British Columbia (BC) knows how to create and maintain a park and we will be able to stay in some of our favorites on this trip along Hwy 16 - the Yellowhead Hwy and Hwy 37 - the Cassiar Highway.

We stayed at Prince George one night on Thursday night at took that opportunity to catch up on our laundry. We also treated ourselves to a pizza that night.

The next day, we took the Yellowhead Hwy 16 out to Tyhee Lake near the town of Telkwa. There we stayed at the Provincial Park - a perfect family designed park complete with lake, spacious, private campsites and even (warm free) showers. There's a great little park down by the lake where families can picnic and enjoy the lake, plenty of playground equipment, and even a place for the kids to ride their little bikes over hills. The place was packed for the three-day Victoria Holiday, but we had the perfect campsite, near the top of the campground.

The sun even came out on Saturday, with the temps hovering in the high 60's. It's been a late spring here, so the warmth was welcome.

We'll be staying here until Monday, when we will move on to the next campground up Hwy 37 - Meziadin.
