The first few trips to Wollaston Lake I taught were great, rapidly it became much nicer when I hit the pavement coming back.

Wollaston Lake is just this side of Points North and that`s close enough for me, thanks. I really prefer pavement.
I once brought back a house trailer that was ferried over from Uranium City to some remote northern site. It was a long and slow trip and it was nice to see the City of Saskatoon sign when I got back here.

It was just a part of the job with the company the L9000 was on with.

I drove a Ford L9000 to Yellowknife once, held it to a constant 130, not bad for having 2 bobcats and a backhoe.

Yellowknife wow, I didnt know you went all the way up there, that would have been a pretty cool drive actually.
