A 3rd fairly long drive, this time from Smithers to Prince Rupert. After breakfast in a rather nice German (Austrian?} bakery in the “downtown”, we headed down the Yellowhead highway again, this time aiming for The Hazeltons as our first stop. This is an area with a lot of First Nations people, and the ‘Ksan museum, which has replica long houses, and is used as a place for local youngsters to learn all the traditions, so they have lots of different artefacts, some old, some new. The guide was very enthusiastic, and demonstrated several of the dances etc. No photos in the huts (would have been pretty dark anyway, flash wouldn’t have worked really), but some outside, when rain could be avoided.

Prince Rupert wasn’t the most exciting place, but we managed to get a table with a view for dinner.
