Fairbanks, Tok, North Pole, Alaska - Haines Yukon

Saturday – August 20, 2016 Haines Junction, Yukon

Since we left Fairbanks, Alaska we stopped overnight at a Chevron gas station in Tok, Alaska.  It was a great stop.  We filled up with fuel and as a bonus received free dump, water and an overnight parking spot.  We left there mid morning and drove 33 miles pass Beaver Creek  to our campground for the night.  Along the way the Royal Canadian Mounted Police had a roadblock.  We thought we were caught speeding in the town but fortunately it was just a check point.  The RCMP officer asked how our trip was.  Bill said he was very disappointed that he didn’t see any mounted police in their dress uniforms riding a hourse.  The officer said if you would have called first I would have changed, however, the uniform is 100% wool and very hot.  The RV park had a grass run for airplances directly across from where we were staying.  We used it several times and enjoyed it immensely. 

We are staying overnight in Haines Junction which is across the street from a visitors center.  We wandered over there and found four unique shirts for Bill.
