Old Alaska Highway
I'm making it a point to be everywhere,see whats here since I don't like being left behind. The host is taking us places and we had a tour guide too (Tara). We drove towards Taylor heading towards the Old Alaska Highway. Along the way we passed through the Steel Bridge,you can feel the car shaking as the tires are not well aligned with the steel bridge.you can actually see the water if you look through the bridge. The Old Alaska Highway was built in 1942 in 9months. Before you get to Kiskatinaw Camping Gound you pass through a woden bridge. The whole bridge from down the river is all made of wood,does not shake if you pass through it and a maximum of 20tonnes is allowed on the bridge.It was scary too walk through the bridge and we walked along the river ,skipping stones in the water.So the construction of Old Alaska Highway began here and was built by American constructors hence the Mile 0, Mile 54 came from.
There are so many bridges but these are the ones that caught my eye so far in Fort St John.
