After a fairly good night's sleep, we were up early and back on the road by 7:20. It was a cloudy day...
About 60 miles (100 kms) down the road, we reached the Canadian border......the Yukon...
...and a very long stretch of muddy road construction.
About 20 miles after crossing the border into Canada, we came to the actual border crossing station.
We were going to stop at this rest area...but it doesn't look like there is room for us as it was being used as a landing pad!
A float plane taking off from Pickhandle Lake...
And...finally...Kluane Lake...
We pulled into Congdon Creek Campground at about 2:30. We stayed here on our way north and really liked it so thought we would make it a stop on our way back south. As luck would have it, the site (#2) that we had before was available...perfect! It was an easy back-in site. We got all set up and then Steve went to get firewood. The Yukon government campgrounds have free firewood...and are only $12/night.At about 4:00 Steve yelled over to me..."guess who just arrived?" It was Alan and Cec, followed by Rob and Joyce. Bob and Sue had continued onto Whitehorse.
They all came over a little later for a campfire....we even had s'mores! Thanks Cec! The weather wasn't great...it even rained a bit...but we had a great time around the fire. The guys with their goofy hats...
At about 9:30 everyone left and we headed inside to warm up...it was so nice seeing Cec, Alan, Joyce and Rob again!
Fun how you keep meeting up with your friends;o))
