Headin' North to get South

We hit the road this morning headed north to Tok, then south to the Yukon Territory. We took the Tok cutoff, which is a road that will challenge your suspension. If you have ever ridden a motorcross track, where you fight it for control every moment, you know what the 120 miles is like from the Alaska border to Destruction Lake. Glad that part is over, again!



Today was our first day in the sun all day, even if it started in the 40's. Great day with over 500 miles, nearly half of it challenging surfaces. The Yukon must be financially challenged, Plywood Royal Mounted Police cars.



Pretty calm day, one moose wander infront of Ron causing a breaking event, and later we avoided a herd of horses in the road. We had hoped to hit the top of the world highway from Chicken and Eagle Alaska, but is was wiped out for a second time this month. Tomorrow, south to Watson Lake then off to the Cassairs Highway towards Washington State (in about four days).
