Hyder - Stewart - Bear Viewing Platform


This is the road into Stewart, BC - 38 miles in from the Cassiar highway.

Another glacier.... getting a little jaded after seeing so many glaciers over the last two months!


The road was just recently resurfaced - good for us!



That building is the Canadian Customs station - the US doesn't even bother to have one between Stewart, BC and Hyder, AK




This is downtown Hyder, AK - for those of you from Indiana - think Arcola but older and smaller!


check out the potholes









Hyder's best restaurant - the food is awesome! Best fish and chips on the whole trip......







Note the sign above the bus door that tells you where to place your order.








The famous bear viewing platform - only thing missing is the bears.









Do you see any bears across the the water? Don't worry - neither did we.....






Just to give you an idea how close the people are to the river/creek.













There were plenty of fish.










At least there are pictures of bears.....
