July 31

Up early to go to the bear viewing area, but no luck. The road beyond Hyder climbs to Rainbow Glacier about 33 miles up a gravel road. We drove up and got some great views, but the road is narrow and dusty. Did I mention the road is dusty? If not, I should. It is dusty!

Back to the campground where we meet our next door campground neighbors, Kathy and Gordon. They live in Hinton, Alberta in the foothill of the Canadian Rockies. We swapped stories and photos. They have amazing photos of grizzlies from back home. Next we head to the bear viewing area for evening viewing. No luck but at least we looked. Plenty of eagles around but no bears.
