Heading back up north, Slave Lake

Well we finally made it back up to Peace River. We stayed in Slave Lake which is around the half way mark back to Peace River, AB. We were originally going to just boondock somewhere along the way but still being relatively new to the mobile "RV life" and our inverter set up not being fully complete. we ended up "chickening out" and staying at Big Fish Bay RV Park. As mentioned previously we installed lithium batteries, updated the converter (the thing that maintains battery charge when connected to mains power) and used an old modified sine wave inverter that I had lying around. At present I need to run power from the inverter to the 50 Amp socket that's conveniently located on the rear wall of the RV. Once I update the inverter it will be hard-wired into the fuse panel. Convenient eh?

Big Fish Bay Resort

"Located on the southeast shore of picturesque Lesser Slave Lake and bordering the town of Slave Lake, Big Fish Bay R.V. Resort offers full service lakefront lots, tent sites, cabins, and group camping areas, as well as excellent fishing opportunities. Big Fish Bay is close to many amenities and a wealth of activities for you and your family to enjoy"  Big Fish Bay

A nice park with some of the older sites on the lakefront or nestled in the trees and bush close to. We stayed in the newer area, after all it was just for the night and this late in the holiday season there were alot of free sites. We have made a reminder to stay in the summer, just like everyone else.

The newly opened areas have been planted out with cover and young trees with amenities located close by. 

We did consider just staying in the carpark of the local Walmart or at the ESSO located just up highway 88 but were a little uncomfortable with stopping over night with all the slides out so opted for the RV park.

The following afternoon we packed up and continued north towards Peace River. One thing though, we have setting and packing up down to an art. Certainly made easier when you travel lite.
