Skagway looks tiny and dark when the ferry dumps us off about midnight
Still twilight, hit the gas for 112 miles to Whitehorse Yukon
Nightmare border crossing turns 1 1/2 hour trip into 4
Busting my balls or doing their job? probably both. Dante is trashed, they pulled everything out
97 miles to go. I see 2 vehicles the whole way. 85 mph is exhilerating through this part of the country
Foxes, badgers, owls, wolverine? can't be sure about that last one even though the sun is about to rise
Crazy night, I'm exhausted
Whitehorse is booked solid, and looks depressing at first light
Moving on, but I have to sleep.
Come on Dante, just a bit further. I spot an ATV trail and he finds me a spot
Not even popping a tent
Layers, Christians cot, sleeping bag, side of the road... zzzzzzzzzzz
my phone says 4pm! wtf? I slept for 12 hours? Got to go
Gas station clerk says it's only 9:30 AM
Is the droid as tired and out of it as me?
Get out of here
WEST
Need shower and bed, Dante needs carwash and to be completely repacked... Later
Sign says "Patches of Gravel Ahead"
7 of em up to 1.5 miles long are considered patches? Strange Highway
Haines Junction
$4 public shower feels good
$12.50 lunch SUX. Are there any good restaurants out here?
Skeleton of a Shell station lays on the road. No one seems to want to bury it
Must be a sign to outsiders: Keep your Corporate formulas out of here
We do things our own way
Pass on through, take your pictures, and get going!
Loose my lunch on the side of their road
Another 1000 mile marker, the trip counter flips back to 000
I'm not sure if that was 7 or 8 times so far; lost track
Stop for a nap on edge of Destruction Lake. Cold, windy
Locals stand out
they're wearing t-shirts
Where did they put my winter parka? got to go
Beaver Creek? Maybe I'll hit a campground on Alaska side tonite.
back on the road...
