Misguided Adventures Day 1

So far, everything is going swimmingly.  We met at our planned time and location and began our journey north. The most daunting task was persuading our GPS's to guide us along our desired route.  

You generally have the option of fastest route or shortest route. When you mix that with use or don't use highways, it can present some interesting routes.  I've ended up in some strange places doing that. I actually had to set a navigation point between the start point and the border in order to take us up highway 9. 

Once we entered Canada, we began heading up the Frasier Canyon.  The road seems improved since I was here last.  Our planned destination wasn't all that far up the road so when we reached Litton, we decided to take a small diverting to Lillooet.  

Quite a scenic ride actually. It follows the river, undulating up and down along the river bank.  Not much traffic made for a relaxing ride.  The land, and weather, transitioned slowly from the 60's and evergreen trees to the 80's and a mix of sage brush and fir and hemlock.  By the time we were back on the main road, it was mostly sage brush and traffic.  

It was a slight double back to Cache Creek, our stop for the night.  Actually, the bartender in Lillooet suggested we head to Clinton.  Apparently there is a couple of better bars and hotels there.  Reservations had already been made in Cache Creek so we'll give this a try.  We have found some fun and interesting people here so I know this will be fine. 

We are trying to decide on our destination for tomorrow.  We have placed ourselves in a position where our ride will either be too long or too short.  We'll let you know where we end up.
