RHYMES WITH TRUCK

 6BFA5230-CEAE-4E48-B924-1C1086F455A0.jpeg Day 4: Two picnic tables, one pit toilet and enough room for three tents. Hartley Lake is a typical Rec Site. User maintained; that means, keep it clean, keep it tidy. Three KTMs call in while I’m packing up. 690, 790, and an 890; three guys out of Calgary. Their last day of five, off-roading in the mountains and it seems they all forgot to bring soap.

Tim Hortons for breakfast in Fernie before heading up to Raduim Hot Springs via Windermere and Invermere. I will be clean even if COVID regulations mean an hour long wait to enter. One of my big issues when touring is having to pay entry fees for natural features of our planet. It seems like every scenic or interesting place has a fence round it, someone has assumed ownership and charges to see or use. Raduim Hot Springs was $8.00, so not too bad but mostly I steer clear of tourist traps.
Another Rec Site for the night helped balance the finances.
