Lake Boya
We embarked on a scenic route along the Cassiar Highway that winds through majestic mountains and meanders alongside picturesque rivers and serene lakes.
Late in the morning, we arrived at the awe-inspiring Ta Ch’ila - Boya Lake Provincial Park, marking our return to the lush landscapes of British Columbia.
Many of the campgrounds we’ve been exploring operate on a “first come” basis. We were fortunate to secure a stunning site adorned with vibrant fireweed and offering a spectacular view of the lake.
After settling in, we hopped on our bikes and headed towards the kayak rental area. Suddenly, we were met with a strong wind, followed by the thunderous boom of a storm and a drizzle that became heavier upon returning to our motorhome. Whew!
We enjoyed visiting with Gwen & Jim before dinner.

Our original plan was to go kayaking before leaving the breathtaking Boya Lake, but a night of rain and waking up to a brisk 48 degrees changed that. However, we are eager to visit Boya Lake again on our return trip from Alaska.
It's been a month since we set out, spending our days exploring the wonders of Canada as we journey toward Alaska.
I have to mention....today is my sweet, amazing, inspirational mom's 97th birthday!
Departing Boya Lake, we traveled along the scenic Cassiar Highway to the Alaska Highway, eventually reaching Teslin Lake -back in the Yukon. Along the way, we had a fleeting encounter with a fox carrying what looked like a couple of small rabbits or rodents in its mouth - it was too quick for us to snap a picture!
Stopping at Rancheria Falls a trail 1/3 mile each way, uphill a lot of the way. The falls and the river were stunning…..so peaceful and spiritual.
