We're on the Road

Feb 12

We're on the road.

We left home at 10 am. After a snow less winter, it snowed the last few days. Roads were bare till Lac la Hache then it got a bit slushy. No fun to drive in but once we got past Clinton all was well. Until the engine light came on in our pickup. Our plan was to camp out in Costco in Abbotsford, but a check of the I-Overlander app showed that you can't park overnight there anymore. I called the nearby Walmart and they were fine but we decided instead to stop in Hope and buy a diagnostic tool for the engine light. 

We camped at the Hope Campsite run by the local Band and Leo and Mark head off to the auto parts store.  The salesperson told them it was probably just the gas tank cap not put on properly.  That turned out to be the error code so they reset it and we were good to go.

It was a really nice Campsite right on the Fraser River with views of snow dusted mountains.  Nice clean washrooms.
