Glacier Road.

We drove south west off the Cassiar highway on a paved spur road called The Stewart-Hyder access road. The locals call this road Glacier highway because several glaciers can be seen in this area. This truly is an isolated area. Stewart is in BC and Hyder is just across a landbridge in Alaska. The economy is driven by tourism, forestry and mining. Between 30 and 50 thousand people visit this area every year however we saw signs of a decaying isolated area. Stewart is far more prosperous than Hyder. It has paved streets.
Hyder is all mud.
