Hi, here are a few pictures of the road through fire.
This is the line up, our van is 3rd on the left, and the next picture is what was behind us!
The line extends as far as I can see, the smoke makes the picture unclear. Some of these campers were in line for 24 hours and slept along the road. We were in a campground and squeezed into a spot where someone left, so we were in line about 5 hours. Then the heliotropes flew over to check the road and then gave the pilot car the go ahead.
We met the fire about 15 miles down the road. We did see flames and evidence of a very hot fire along both sides of the road.
We are finding out that downloading pictures is troublesome to the connection and to me!!! Takes a bunch of time and the connections cuts out and then stuff disappears!
We are in Hyder, AK now, and went to the bear viewing area along Fish Creek, saw a black bear feeding, then drove up to see Salmon Glacier, drove till the clouds closed in and we couldn't see anything! We did see the lower parts of the glacier.
Take care, Carol
