It's time to head back down to the lower 48 for the rest of the year! On our way up to Alaska we drove the Alaska Highway through British Columbia, but for the way down we took a different route, the Stewart-Cassiar Highway. During our 4 days driving down the Cassiar Highway, plus part of the Yellowhead Highway, we saw stunning bright blue lakes and tons of mountains, learned about jade, camped by a lake, enjoyed some smaller towns, saw BEARS, and slept overlooking an insane glacier. It was one of the most memorable experiences of our summer!
