We got back on Hwy 37 (also known as Cassiar Highway) and stayed on it until we got on Hwy 16 (Highway of Tears) at Kitwanga. There are billboards posted at the intersection of 37 & 16 advising females not to hitchhike due to many unsolved disappearances/murders with the killer unknown. Several have disappeared or murdered between Prince Rupert, BC and Prince George, BC (Hwy 16). It has been estimated that approx. 40 women have become missing or murdered since 1969. We saw several postings of missing people at the rest stops and city streets as we traveled through them. So sad, for the family and friends of these people.
I took a few photos along the way.
