Rochfort Bridge Trestle in Alberta
We came upon this train trestle unexpectedly, while driving north of Edmonton. This trestle is one of the longest wooden bridge trestles in North America if not the longest. It is 110 feet high and crosses over the Paddle River and Hwy 43. Quite a spectacular sight.

Surveyor
Fortunately, this surveyor pointed the way to Alaska, and also was kind enough to be pointing to our RV Park, Northern Lights.

Street Sign
Tomorrow we will go into Dawson's Creek. Our agenda tomorrow includes Visitors' Center and the Farmer's Market. It will be interesting to see what fruits and vegetables they have up here and get ready for our journey. It is about 1500 miles to Tok, Alaska.
