Ketchikan, AK

Yeahaaaa, yes, I got Alaska! Five hours from Prince Rupert by ferry. Getting here at midnight. Tha bay there is really quiet, like a mirror. Just a beautiful night town on the water. Nice "American" harbor town which someshing is diffrent from Canadian one...












　

Prince Rupert, British Columbia

A small town on the Pacific coast in northern B.C. The town in a beautiful sunshine and rain sometimes. The harbor town makes me relaxed. And that reminds me small harbor towns in Japanese northern islands. Of course, almost everything is different from Japanese one, but some small atmosphere is similar. Spending slower time which is last a few days in Canada.

"We must change. We wish to see in Prince Rupert."


This is a proof which here is on the Pacific coast. Some fishing equipment which came from Japan.


Really good hostel is there.


　

Ichi the way

To NORTH. Just I started next chapter. Long way from the Canadian Rocky to Prince Rupert, BC, via Calgary, Edomonton, Prince George, and so many small villages. Two nights by GreyHound, then get Pacific coast! My time which I spend in Canada this one year is almost done.
















　

Sunshine Village 2011

It had been snowing for a week before I leaving there. But in my last day, it got clear sky with so much powder. And riding with ten of my friends! That's, definitely amazing morning.

It's never enough to say good bye, never. Staying and working 5 months in Sunshine Village is just awesome, with many friends and beautiful mountains. Just thank you for everybody which I met in Banff.
















　

Mt. Bourgeau.

is one of a bigger mountain around Sunshine Village. Beautiful and powerful. Even though we couldn't get to the peak in a snowy day, it was fun at all. Climbing five hours and got a long ride! On Mar 30, 2011.


Walking among the trees one hour to get to the base of Bourgeau.
