We woke up and I got the coffee going. It was a little chilly, so I started the propane heater as well. With the wind being the way it is, neither one of us feel comfortable setting up the wood stove. After we had some coffee and shook off the sleepy slumber, I made some… Continue reading D.O.C. – exploration around area

ChistoChino, AK to Willow, AK
Woke up and waited a while until we thought the people in the lodge would have some coffee ready. I think I went up around 6:45am, and peeked in the glass sliding door, and I heard her say "Come on in!". Coffee wasn't quite ready yet, but she said to sit down and make myself… Continue reading ChistoChino, AK to Willow, AK
Dawson City, YT to ChistoChino, AK (Red Eagle Lodge)
Wow - a lot to write about for this day. We needed to take the ferry across the Yukon river to continue our journey. We arrived around 7:00am and there was already a line. When an RV went across, they could only take one at a time. There were about 6 or 7 already in… Continue reading Dawson City, YT to ChistoChino, AK (Red Eagle Lodge)
Whitehorse, YT to Dawson City, YT
I slept until 5:30am, and then woke up somewhat quickly. Dad was already awake. I jumped in the shower and got ready. By that time it was 5:50, and he said "Tim Hortons doesn't open until 6:30, so we have another 40 minutes". So.... we sat and twiddled our thumbs. This is one of those… Continue reading Whitehorse, YT to Dawson City, YT

We were up early this morning, as the breakfast place started serving at 4:30am. I think we were there by 5:15 and were back on the road by 6:00am. We've really encountered some of the most spectacular and stunning scenery along this leg of the journey. From Fort Nelson to here and beyond is the… Continue reading Fort St. John, BC to Coal River Lodge & RV

We had breakfast in the restaurant, which was included. We both had two eggs over easy, bacon, and hashbrowns. We were back on the road by 7:00. Our next destination was Dawson Creek, the start of the Alaska Highway. We made it there by 11:00ish, stopped into the info center and found out where the… Continue reading Whitecourt, SK to Fort St. John, BC
Saskatoon, SK to Whitecourt, SK
Woke up, had some coffee, then hit the breakfast area provided by the hotel. We were on the road by 7:30am, traveling towards Edmonton. I had made arrangements to meet up with some friends in Edmonton prior to our trip, but we were originally planning on spending the night there. Since we had to drive… Continue reading Saskatoon, SK to Whitecourt, SK
