The ferry trip took 1-1/2 days with four intermediate stops to reach Prince Rupert, BC. For those without a cabin tenting on the upper deck and sleeping bags in the lounges were permitted during the overnight. I kept a sleepy vigil by my computer in the front passenger lounge as it logged the trip on the ferry. Standard AC power was available nearly anywhere on the boat.

The ferry ride from Haines to Prince Rupert departed about 2:30 in the afternoon and continued until midnight of the following day making stops at ports along the way including Juneau and Ketchikan. A campground at Prince Rupert was used for a few hours of sleep before continuing by car through the interior of British Columbia. Camping one night near Fort Frasier and the second near Lytton [tag #7]. This three day drive through farmland, high desert and a spectacular chasm concluded with a stopover in Seattle [next page]..
