1st Sgt. Gifford and Mike (New Zealand) made it home yesterday, Washington State. the CCKW ran fine for the final leg. We had them over for dinner tonight and wished Mike well. He is off to New Zealand tomorrow. He was very complimentary of the whole adventure. Hope the rest of you make the final leg in good shape as well.

This was one trip I would have given a lot to be on. Somehow missed the postings during the actual trip, too much to do here and not enough money to throw everything down and join the convoy. Getting sentimental here looking at old pics of that road.

I have a special request. I went through several pages of posting, but I did not see much about the middle part of the trip in Northern BC. For those of you who were on the trip, anybody has any pics or stories about passing Toad River Lodge Mile 422? Or the Liard Hotsprings about 2 hours further on the road?

I spent 6 months there, and once I will get back there.
