Monday September 28th (From the Plains to the Rockies)


Dawson Creek to Grande Cache
205 miles




The 1st thing we did after hooking Cassie up this morning was go to the car wash, should really be called motor home wash. All the rain and brown muck from the road made Cassie and Chevy extremely dirty, we got both rigs relatively clean. Yesterday after going to the Dawson Creek Visitors Center we decided that we would drive south through Jasper.
Today on our drive to Grande Cache the wind was blowing the leaves were coming down everywhere it was really lovely to see. We drove through Grande Prairie, a community of 50,000; it’s kind of weird now driving in urban areas after coming down the Alcan. 
We arrived at Grande Cache and went to the visitors information, got loaded down with things to do in this area, we knew we had to stay here 2 nights.
We went to the Grande Cache Labyrinth in the early evening and we had to walk it, it was kind of interesting going everywhere but going nowhere to get to the center.
We are staying in the Municipal Camp Ground here; each site is nested in the woods, just a lovely and private. Another day surrounded by beautiful foliage blowing in the wind
