Strange as it may seem, this time we are going to follow the path of a highway: the part of the Yellowhead Highway running through British Columbia, that is Highway 16. Then, we'll turn to south into Highway 5, up to our destination. In spite of this, you won't see just a strip of asphalt, because you are going to cross an extremely scenic wide valley, with a tortuous river in the middle.

here some screenies from this end, sorry for the delay as I've been fighting with a Linux install all day, BUT, with the fantastic help of bushy we got it up and purring

was quite an undertaking as most of the flight I was suspended in the thick soup Razz

Great flight and was a pleasure to see all again online and flying
