| An imposing beginning. The road is even paved for the first few km just to draw you in. It is 372 km of wilderness and wildlife on gravel road from the beginning of the highway to Eagle Plains, our destination for lodging. |
 |
| They warn you about the dust. Complete dirt-out when a semi crosses your path. Pity the motorcyclists and the (idiot) cyclists. |
 |
| Tombstone national park is about 80 km into the drive. |
 |
| This is in Tombstone national park. Broad valleys surrounded by friendly mountains |
 |
 |
| The snow is now BELOW us! |
 |
| Lunch beside a stream of pure cold water. |
 |
| Lunch by river holding desperately to the chip bag. |
 |
| Friendly Mountain near river. |
 |
| Miserable excuse for a tree. Black Spruce. |
 |
| Close-up of Labrador tea that we had at the tombstone visitors centre. Very good. |
 |
| The meadows are full of Labrador Tea. It looks like snow in the meadow. |
 |
| Nameless decaying mountain. |
 |
| Red creek with red snow. Seems to be iron in the vicinity. |
 |
| Into the dry decaying mountains. |
 |
| The road goes ever on and on. |
 |
| Self -explanatory. See pop. |
 |
| We were there. |
 |
| Arrival at Eagle plains lodge. Travelling under cover of dirt. |
