thanks for the trip report Harold. Pretty well trip of a lifetime.

The power line subject reminded me of the recent NASA produced images of earth at night. Google has made it a bit easier to view (https://earthbuilder.google.com/10446176163891957399-13737975182519107424-4/mapview/) 

See how dark a lot of BC and Alaska is? And the lights tracing out the roads?

cheers
