Another great day in the North sunny with showers but getting smoky as we arrive in Smithers. We are told to expect a lot of smoke tomorrow as we go East on the Yellow Head Highway.

After a walk through town, we had dinner at the Riverhouse Restaurant and the room was nicely decorated with skis, snowshoes, canoe parts, bear skin, chainsaw, 6 inch thick spruce tables, river rocks etc… Then Dunnery told me it was all fake!

I wonder if the firefighters in grey overalls with blacken faces like the chimney sweep in Mary Poppins showing up for dinner were also part of the show, or did they just come back from a stint on the Bulkley Nechako fire?
