Plenty of water - Plenty of trees |
Tuesday, May 16, 2017, by Jolene: It’s a SUNNY morning! YEAH!!
We could make it to Anchorage today if we really pushed it, but decided
to take two days to it. So we are
letting the camper dry out real good this morning since it was quite damp and
wet last night when we crawled in, after the rainy night the night before. We did some computer work at the McDonald’s
right here before we packed up and took off again. By Roger:
We had a hard time packing up because people kept stopping by to admire
our camper and ask about it. One man who
lives there said he was on the Steward – Cassair highway just a few weeks ago,
and the highway is 480 miles long and he only passed 11 cars the entire time. There are not many vehicles there (a number
of trucks), but we saw more than 11. We continued
on to Alaska, stopping in Tok to set up and make dinner. We saw a few mosquitos in BC at one park we
stopped to fill up with some water, but that was the ONLY time the entire trip. I guess it is too cold – but that was a nice
surprise. In Tok we did have mosquitos,
the large Alaska size ones! We drove
until later than night and stopped before Glennallen at a pull-off next to a
river. The mosquitos were quite abundant. The last several days we saw a good bit of
wildlife, more bears, caribou, moose, badgers, foxes, mule deer, mountain goats (one with small kid), and an elk or
two. We drove 491 miles today.
