Martha and I rode Scarlett, my 2014 Ural Patrol across the border into Canada at the Eastport/Kings Gate border crossing. We rode on Route 3A along the Kootenay Lake, enjoying the views.
Here's one of several small harbors along the lake:

Next, we drove over the 5km or so from the Kootenay Ferry's eastern embarkation point to a lighthouse for which Martha had spotted signage.
It was a good find. We had access to the top of the lighthouse and the outside balcony. Here's a pano view of the lake from the lighthouse on Pilot Bay:
Though surprised, we were pleased at the access we had:
It was about a 180 mile round trip but well worth it! A quiet evening back at Lake Robinson finished off the day:

We displaced to the Libby Dam and Lake Koocanusa in Montana.
While Martha relaxed at the Dunn Creek Flats COE campground, I checked out the eastern viewpoints to the Libby Dam nearby:
Got back, slightly wet but safely.

The Glass House is a great find. Still under construction?
The shot of Martha on the pier is nice.
Your pics certainly have some Alps vibes coming along... missing the mountains. Say hi to Martha, eh!? Cheers SonjaM
Thanks, CCjon. No, it's finished.
The Kootenay region is beautiful, and I like the free ferries!
They consider the ferries part of their road system so they're free. Well, sort of.
Fun ride and great places to explore. the Glass house is pretty cool. We hope to explore more of the Kootenay area someday.
Bluekat, it's a neat area and not too crowded. Definitely check out the lighthouse on Pilot Bay.
