The rest of our evening at the Northern Rockies Lodge was spectacular; we walked up and down the shore, watching little birds hop along. We saw animals, across the lake on the far shore. The smells of campfire, pine trees and the lake are something only believed once you experience it yourself.

Among all the great things that the Northern Rockies Lodge offers, they also offer some very cool tours, including Flight seeing Tours; Fly in fishing trips, Outpost Cabins, and the Nahanni National Park Flight seeing tour. They always have daily deals on seats for the Local flight seeing tours and also have Hotel/Flight deals offered to anyone coming to spend a few days at the lodge.

The Nahanni National Park is Canada’s first UNESCO World Heritage Site, and is located in the Northwest Territories. They offer reasonable group rates on all flights, and also offer guided tours for those wanting the full experience.

These tours are perfect for anyone who wants to experience the untouched beauty of Canada’s North. The staff at the Northern Rockies Lodge are helpful, kind and always accommodating.

Muncho Lake is a perfect stop on your Alaska Highway adventure because; there are so many options for adventure for all age groups. There is hiking, great fishing, five accommodation choices and so many places to explore.

Reluctantly we packed up our truck and hit the highway once more, we stopped at Toad River Lodge again and enjoyed some home made cream of broccoli soup and home made bread straight from the oven.

We also stopped at the Erosion Pillars and did the short 1km hike to them, they were spectacular and beautiful. A great way to stretch your legs on the long journey, they are located 149 kms north of Fort Nelson, BC.

Although we only had the chance to explore a small piece of the vast Alaska Highway, we had a great time. Leaving us with only a hunger to explore more of it!
