Day 4: July 7, 2016
Dep: Iskut, BC-6am 
Arrive: Whitehorse Yukon
500miles

Cassiar Hywy 37:
The road is a small 2 lane road with Occasional potholes, patches of gravel spots and one lane bridges. Jeff says it's a pretty good road but we are averaging 50 miles per hr.
Spoke to soon: After Dease Lake the road sucks! 
Road project 20 miles. We are happy we did not bring our trailer.

We are seeing lots of wabits!🐾

WOW!! We just saw a 40ft Motorhome going opposite direction then us, with his slides out!😨 Mmmm!
Jeff thinks skitters got to him and he's in a hurry to get out of here!!

8:46am: We saw a Black bear 40 miles north of Dease Lake walking on the side of the road. Close! Awesome! 🐾🐾

5 miles north of Boya lake dead trees. Lots of DEAD trees!! Fire?

10:30am: We are in the Yukon. We are now getting on Hywy 1 Alaska Highway. First 7 miles west was gravel. So far after 7 miles it's a big 2 lane Hywy. Not bad at all!!

We ended up making it to Whitehorse Yukon. We are presently at the High country RV park. We got the last campsite. $21 CAN


These antique military vehicles were through out the campground.

*Honor the divine nature of every being!

Day 8 July 11, 2016 Healy, AK We are going to be staying in a hotel for the next four nights here in Healy, Alaska. (July 11-15) We will be exploring the Denali National Park and this whole area. Today we went and saw the Denali dogsled Demonstration. Denali sled dogs "mush" the trails of Denali Park all winter long. In the summer time the kennel dogs participate in a sled dog demonstration three times a day. We did get to hang with the dogs and pet them. Free Demo! "Please scratch my back"  "Would you smile if some weirdo wanted to do a selfie with you"? After the dogsled demonstration we went to the Denali visitors center. We watched a movie about Denali and looked at all the displays and information about the park. Jeff made a friend! After hanging out at Denali, we headed back to Healy and on the way stopped at a beautiful hotel that was perched way up above the    Denali Village! I can't remember the

Day 46: Aug 18 (Whitehorse, YK - Fort Nelson, BC) 610 miles

This morning we were up early on our way to the bathroom and a fox was about 4 feet from Jeff. He thought it was going to come right up to him and then it saw me and walked around us to eat some berries about 12 feet from us. Of course by the time I got to my camera he was gone. Awesome Sauce!! Whitehorse to Fort Nelson: At Johnson's Crossing we stopped and picked up some goodies at the Bakery. The Cherry and Apple turnovers were delicious. Cinnamon Rolls were also good. Scones we did not care for. Good place to check out. This rest stop was just down the road from this bakery. I loved the way it was landscaped! The gravel road on the left of this sign is highway 6 to Ross River, Yukon. Yep its gravel all the way. This was on the road by Swift River. We stopped to get a good picture of the bridge below and decided to explore this RV park. We drove thru it and the Container RV was parked in one of the spots. We thought it was so cool how they built it and even had a de

Day 45: Aug 17 (Tok, AK - Whitehorse, Yukon) 420 miles

Happy Anniversary  To US!!  We started the day out at the Tok RV Village RV park, where we had stayed on the way to Alaska.  While we were getting ready to go a squirrel was hopping from tree to tree, knocking down the pine cones. In this picture you can see he's on his way to another tree. He was doing this until we left. We figured the winters must be pretty cold if he's working this hard to get his stores up! Tok, AK to Whitehorse, Yukon: If you go to Alaska or Canada, I highly recommend going to all the visitors centers. Most all have more then just travel information. Many have history, demonstrations and more. They are all very helpful!! This one was in Alaska before the Canadian Border.. This was the Refuge behind the visitors station where you can go hiking and fishing. One of the type of fish that are in these lakes. On the road: These pictures were taken in the Yukon. We noticed the trees were turning fall colors already. We ended up staying a
