The Vicarious Triker: Reflections
http://vicarious-triker.blogspot.com/2009/10/reflections.html
Wednesday, October 7, 2009. My apologies for not resuming the blog when Dee and Cal resumed their trip, but now that they are back home, I wanted to reflect a little on what I learned. The provinces and territories. It was also cool that I was able to travel to Canada (Vancouver) myself during this time, and in this way meet people from all over Canada. Oh, yes, one more thing: if you have had an ice cream today, life is good. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tools for the journey. Broken Bow, NE.

The Vicarious Triker: July 2009
http://vicarious-triker.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 20, 2009. The Bulkley River Valley. The Bulkley River is a major tributary of the Skeena River and is paralleled by Highway 16 in the region of Smithers. Despite the fact that its major tributary, the Morice River, is actually larger, the confluence was still called the Bulkley by Poudrier, a government cartographer who, it is rumored, never saw the region. And for another piece of trivia, the inhabitants of Smithers are commonly called Smithereens. Sunday, July 19, 2009. On the Road Again.

The Vicarious Triker: Alaska's "First City"
http://vicarious-triker.blogspot.com/2009/07/alaskas-first-city.html
Monday, July 13, 2009. The picture Dee posted of the entrance to Ketchican claims that it is "Alaska's 1st City." Yet Sitka claims that it is "The First City in Alaska." Which one is correct? Without going into the details of determining exactly when a given city is established, it is clear that Sitka is the older. Ketchican's history dates to 1883, while Sitka's history begins around 1800. How, then, can Ketchican claim to be Alaska's first city? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tools for the journey.

The Vicarious Triker: Ursus americanus kermodei
http://vicarious-triker.blogspot.com/2009/07/ursus-americanus-kermodei.html
Sunday, July 19, 2009. Dee and Cal missed seeing the Kermode bear (. Which fascinatingly is a subspecies of the American Black Bear. They are neither albino nor related to polar bears, nor the "blond" brown bears of Alaska's "ABC Islands". This color variant is due to a unique recessive trait in their gene pool, and about 1/10th of their population have white or cream-colored coats. From what I can tell, they are found only in central British Columbia. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Broken Bow, NE.

The Vicarious Triker: B.C. Border Crossings
http://vicarious-triker.blogspot.com/2009/07/bc-border-crossings.html
Wednesday, July 15, 2009. Another trivia question: how many times have Dee and Cal crossed a border into. The province of British Columbia? By my count the number is seven (7), once from Alberta, five times from Yukon, and once from Alaska. They have crossed the border out of. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tools for the journey.

Thursday, July 16, 2009. On the Road Again. After three weeks on the Alaska Maritime Highway System (ferry), Dee and Cal are on the road again, starting out with a bang, riding 91 miles to Terrace, BC. They are on BC-16.
