Northern limit

We've hit our Northern limit.

Northern B.C.; 'The North'; seems very remote when you're in Victoria. The reality of being here feels quite different.

Nothing has really felt remote thus far. Always close to fast internet, laundromat services and shops that sell humus and quinoa.

Looking at the map confirms the sense that we're nowhere close to remote. Highways everywhere. We're only halfway up B.C; there's an entire territory above us.

We're moving much faster than usual now that we're in a fast lane. We want to get some warmer weather down South while it's available.

Lava

We've been in the Nisga Memorial Lava Bed Park for a few days now.

It's a very striking landscape. The lava flows and ash beds from the late 1700's make for some welcome diversity and beautiful scenery.

The history here is  another repeat of what we've found all over B.C. Large stable settlements ravaged by disease, and a few helpings of oppression and cultural genocide. 30000 people, whittled down to 700 disease survivors who are then oppressed and their families torn asunder. The volcanic eruption that killed 2000 people here is a comparatively tame disaater in comparison with the arrival of Europeans. Not a history to be proud of.

The leaves are falling at an ever increasing rate. It's warmer than Haida Gwaii, but winter is coming.

Our visit here has been very nice, except for the generators and the music....
