Thank you for taking the time to do this fabulous report! We just booked this trip yesterday for 2018. I can't wait!
We are taking this ABD in Sept. 2018. I have 2 questions: On the white water rafting what do you wear? Do you go directly from there to the Red Bus Tour or can you change before? Was the strenuous hike to the tea house worth it? Did you see things you wouldn't have seen otherwise? Would you do it again? Thank you for your trip report. I know it takes quite a bit of time to do, but it really did help us.Thanks! You're going to love this one!

My uncle is a retired RCMP officer and he gives talks to various groups quite frequently. He started policing in the (former) NWT (Great Slave Lake) and he travelled to the outlying regions by dog sled and would go for a two weeks at a time. He was the coroner, justice of the peace, police officer in charge, emergency doctor and anything else that required any measure of authority. He is also an amazing storyteller. And he did get assigned to a horse when he first joined the force because his height and weight fit the profile of what they were looking for at the time! At 91 years of age (he joined right out of high school at 18 years of age) he is one of the last surviving members of his generation of policing. He has written extensively about his time in the RCMP (nothing officially published).
Thank you for taking the time to do this amazing report. This Adventure had not been on my list but just went to the top.
