Day 9 - The Alaska Highway

Day9 -  June 24, 2013, 491.0 miles Travelled Lo 54°F Hi 84°F

Broke camp this morning, a very special day for me, I'm a bit older!

Made ot to Dawson Creek, BC. Lot's of fantastic views along the way:

After a quick breakfast at MacD's, and check of email, I started at Mile 0.0 of the Famous Alaskan Highway, and I forgot to take a picture!

Along the way to Fort Nelson I got wet again; nasty stuff, but I dried quickly.

I met a fellow in the gas station who gave me a tip to go to a particular Inn in Fort Nelson, as I will not find any lodging in the area due to the oil worker population. I said OK, found the place, but forgot I wanted to stay at Toad Creek Campground, another 140 kilometers up the road. Sure: the Bruins were on, too bad... it's just a game :)

I will not let that happen again. You got have a solid plan, and backup plan:

I got it covered, GPS reprogrammed all the way to TOK, AK.
