That's big.....

So is this mining truck in Logan lake BC...

And.....

in Mackenzie BC..

When they created the lake at Mackenzie, they left one of those in the bottom of the lake..

got mines a bit ago and its pretty informative but I didn't feel it covered those little known places and that it tended to gleen the more popular 2-3-4 places in each state. Still worth having as a reference if you ride long distance alot.

We got ours last week too. Though I'm kinda disappointed. The scenic highways and byways are hovering out in the middle of nowhere. How do you you get there???

Try taking US Highways with numbers that don't divide evenly with 5.

Do that at night and you find you're the only one on the road. Gets pretty spooky when theres a fog (while not being in deer country). Then you pull up to a village where most of the lights are off. I should go back there for Halloween.
