Day 12 Alaska Trip - TransCanada Hwy to International Falls
We drove the TransCanada Highway from Kakabeka Falls until 4 miles before we dipped back down into the USA at International Falls..
This was a very rural highway. We probably went 150 miles without seeing a gas station. There was even a warning sign stating limited services when we turned west near near the beginning.
This Smokey the Bear monument was erected in 1954, a little more than ten years after the original Bear was invented in World War II as a cartoon character -- to protect the nation's lumber resources from careless campfires.
We camped fort he night at Arnold’s Campground and RV Park at $36. It’s a good thing it was a short one night stop because our spot was like a giant mud puddle.
