Boya Lake Provincial Park (Cassiar Highway) to
Morley Lake (Alaska Highway)
28 August 2009
Having explored the lake with the kayaks yesterday, it was time to move on. Boya Lake is a short drive from the Yukon border. The highway gets a bit rougher through this area, and there is some road upgrades underway.

At km 720, travellers are advised they are leaving British Columbia.

A few miles later, drivers have two choices at the Alaska Highway.

A must see for many is the sign forest in Watson Lake.

On this day, we checked out a couple of spots for camping. Just before the first crossing into the Yukon, there is a British Columbia rec site beside Morley Lake. The road is steep, one-lane, a little overgrown and rough. We slowly inched our way to a quiet campspot beside the lake.

As always, Jake and Tazz were happy to get out of the truck. Not too happy about the leashes though!
