The planned departure date is Tuesday, July 17, weather permitting. Were flying C-FPAK, a Cessna 172R. The route is Bob and I are taking is Boundary Bay (CZBB) to Salmon Arm (CZAM), get fuel and have a bio break, then on to Calgary/Springband via Revelstoke and Golden. Both of these are the preferred VFR Routes.
Were busy planning, packing up our stuff for the flight, and realizing just how little weight we have available for everything other than essentials. I guess that's the price you pay for getting an aircraft with Bucket Seats and a full avionics suite. Too bad it doesn't have an 8-Track. Our intended route for the first day is shown in the map.
Stay tuned as our intrepid aviators fly their way across Canada.

Too bad the weather's not cooperating... too good that you have no particular time constraints!! Looking forward to following the adventures on the blog and/or website. (Do the bunny slippers get to go along?)
