PIctures to accompany the last few days. (August 7-8th) 2011

We drove from Kluane to Teslin on Saturday through the Takhini Valley and across many of the US Army's bridges that they build on the "Alcan"highway. Stopping at some places but seeing also many abandoned and shuttered places as well. Sunday we ended the Alaska Highway portion as on Monday we head south on the Cassiar Highway (B.C. 37) toward the Washington Border. This will be a 10 day trip with three nights at Hyder AAk, to see the bears there on Fish and Mark's creek's, and another day to drive to Telegraph Creek (Gold center in the 1890's) and back again and perhaps get some Tahlkan smoked salmon on the way. Probably no internet until 5-6 days , so hang on until then you faithful readers.






1. Campsite at "Baby Nugget RV Park" at the junction of the Alaska Hwy. and BC 37 (Cassiar Hwy. S.)
2. A basic mp that shows the routes we took in and around Alaska and the Yukon.
3. Sunset through the rain that caused the below picture (Rainbow) Teslin.
4. Grizzly bear that did not stay around long but Ruth did get a few pictures of it. I think it saw the snow on the mountains that morning and decided to get busy eating.
5. Rainbow opposite the sun shining through the rain . (above)
