A few pics on the Cassiar Hwy going southbound. I really enjoyed that road. You can't tell by these pics but, the road has lots of curves.

We went south up to Meziadin Junction and took the 37a toward Steward BC/Hyder Alaska. Along the way we stop at the bear Glacier Provincial Park.

This was my second time in this amazing place. Here's a video that I did in 2011.

awesome trip report and pics…we did a 2up ride on the fjr 3 summers ago up to Dawson city. saw all the spots along the way you showed,,,beautiful area. wrecked a front tire on the Top of the world hiway and had to have a replacement flown up overnite from Whitehorse.Thank goodness for "dick of the north" at the Downtown hotel in Dawson.He had a tire change machine in his garage and helps out all the tour guys passing thru. We also were in Skagway and returned via Hyder. Our 2nd incident was a motorhome trying to back over us on the road while he was bear watching . It caused a minor tip over on the sandy shoulder of the road… then the asshole drove away and left us picking up the bike…beside the bear…kinda memorable. Only wish I would have had my klr up there to continue north as you guys did. Really a great time… tons of bikes up there in summer …only way to do the trip

One location you need to see when you come here is the Salmon Glacier. In 2011, I could not see a thing but now the weather was perfect and I was looking forward to take the road to the glacier again. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmon_GlacierPerfect day in Steward/Hyder, July 2015. These 2 pics are from the first time I went to the Salmon Glacier, July 2011. All I could see is the tip of the toe!  A video that I made from 2011 going to the Salmon Glacier on a rainy/foggy day

On the way back down we needed to get some glacier water for the evening meal. Best water in the world!

Back in Stewart, we stop in town to buy a few thing before going to the campground for the night.
27C on that day and I needed a Klondike Bar!
Both bikes needed a bit of cleaning by then.
Campground in Stewart.
