Day 3

Not too long after leaving Sudbury... there are lots of nice curvy bits on the road, making for very enjoyable driving.

Even on the straight bits, there's quite a bit of up and down. Since the highway is largely one-lane, it sucks getting stuck behind a slowbie. Gotta pick your passing places carefully.

Mister Slow Cattle Rack (Our nickname for the silver Cadillac in front) was kind of creating a mini-traffic jam. He wasn't really ~that~ slow, in fact, he'd kind of speed up every time we'd find a likely safe passing zone... just enough so that we'd have to drive pretty illegally to get 'round him. Eventually, he turned off for gas or something.

Other than the road itself, sometimes, microwave relay towers like these were our only proof of civilization... no damn cell service for a LONG while though. Not the right kind of antennas here.

A bit blurry in the foreground because this was shot out the side window of our moving car. This is typical of the sights to be seen.

Again, sorry for the slight blurryness here - moving car dontchyaknow? This kind of semi-barren, craggy tundra looking stuff was also a fairly common sight.

While driving on the "highway", we'd often see small side roads and/or driveways leading off into who-knows-what? This was actually one of the more "civilized" loking ones... they even appear to have phone and power lines.
