The Move to Missouri: Red Deer

Distance: 505 miles

The highway took us through some slightly hilly terrain before flattening out for the last of the Alaska Highway.  We made an unceremonious stop at Dawson Creek, the official start of the highway.  Hans did not care to take a picture but I felt like we should since we’d suffered so much just to get to this point.


Back in car it wasn’t long before we entered Alberta.  From here the roads were perfectly un-mountainous and snow-free.

We were hungry when we stopped for gas in Grande Prairie, so we ate at Humpty’s , a greasy spoon sort of establishment that was recommended by a local I spoke with. 

The rest of the day was spent bearing southeast, skirting Edmonton, to finally come to rest in Red Deer. 

Tomorrow we shall return to America.
