We chose to get a few glory shots of the Ranger here before we got to Teslin, we were making good pace at this point.

This is just outside Teslin, this is the longest bridge on the Alaska Highway, it has a fully grated deck so snow doesn't build up. And interesting tidbit, Ben's (thatbluecar) Grandfather actually was one of the engineers that made that bridge a reality.

We started running behind, and I'll tell you those seats suck!

Here we are at Junction 37, this is where we decided to run into Watson Lake to do something a little bit epic before meeting up with Ray.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the signpost forest. At over 75,000 signs it is quite the spectacle.

So needless to say Friday afternoon I whipped up something at work and we searched for a proper place to put it. And found an awesome spot.

So as darkness fell it was time to jump back in the Ranger to get back into the overnight spot in Watson, and make the trip back home on Sunday.

awesome pics! so what's the plan from smithers?
 
Went to Terrace today. Met Sasquatch_Ryda briefly and handed over the banner. Sorry, no pics as we were both working and it literally was 5 minutes in the parking lot.

Ryan plans to take the banner camping this weekend and promises lots of pics. He has a few people lined up to sign it, so I'll leave it in his hands.

I'm available to shuttle the banner east to PG if needed and I plan to head south to Hope BC August 7 thru 10. I'm travelling via Hwy 97 and Hwy 1. I may return on the 9/10 via Kelowna and Kamloops. Of course, all this takes me thru Prince George on Hwy 16, so if anyone wants to work with this, let me and SasquatchRyda know ASAP. I may need to go to Calgary in mid September, so there's another option.
 
Yup, good to meet you today Ray. This baby should get some good photo ops this long weekend and it will also be the maiden voyage of my truck since getting it all put back together. 3 or 4 guys in town that are members that will be along too. Will keep you posted.
 
Was helping Sasquatch_Ryda tonight working on his truck and seen the banner, deff going to take a bunch of pics with it this weekend...should be 3 RBV on our yearly Red Rose trip!!!

Fantastic work, guys! That is awesome!

I like the Signpost Forest. It's unique.
 
I just got back home and I think that everybody who signed the Banner has a green marker.....let me know if you need to be updated....

Man......some GREAT pics.....trucks/mountains/signings/streams/mountains....
