The bear viewing road (our camp host told us we’d see bears & deer for sure-we still haven’t) we use to get to Sicamous is being repaved, we were delayed on Tuesday. They have a large chunk to go so we refrained from using. It’s Sunday-they won’t be working. We were hugely surprised they were done! Only thing left, paint the centre line. This would have taken much longer in Ontario.
We have to cross the tracks, trains here are super long. We turn onto a road we’ve never been on before, alternate route to Sicamous perhaps?
May have stuck 🐻 gold! 
Not an alternate route but a great find!
An interesting read about bears in the Shuswap. I didn’t know about Karelian Bear Dog. The bears in the tree video (at the end of the write up) are cute, they are certainly comfortable in trees.
Just found WARP (Wildlife Alert Reporting Program) website. Bears everywhere! Except if you change it to Sicamous, none reported. It’s fun playing with the locations.
All of BC: Black bears, cougars, wolves
Sicamous: none reported 
Prince Rupert: only wolf sighting reported 
Back to the drive, the road ends at

House boat lifeeeee :p
Some of those houseboats are very luxurious.
They are. Not being a big water person, I don’t think I’d use the slides off the back.
