DAWSON CREEK, YT (Day 2).  Posed for group photo at Mile Zero of the Alaska Highway.


We later went to see local sites of interest.  One was Kiskatinaw Bridge, a wooden bridge with 11 degree pitch built with wood by U. S. Army as part of original Alaskan Highway.  Another was a wooden railway trestle near Pouce Coupe, BC that was built in the 1930s.  Both the bridge and railway are closed to traffic now.
