The road from Haines Junction YT to Haines Alaska has been the best quality road we have had in a loooong time! The mountains along the road are very much like the eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas with a few glaciers thrown in for good measure. The skys are still very hazy not sure if it is still from the fires or if is smoggy. We came to see the Eagles and we have seen enough although we have not seen them swarming. Dave fished one day but to no avail evidently this is the time for Sockeye Salmon to run but the commercial fishermen up here use drag nets so pretty much block them from swimming upstream , but he still had fun. This is a a quaint town kind of lost in the 60’s. A lot of self healing ,yoga and meditation along with some marijuana brownies throw in:-). It could really use a good cafe for lunch.
Tomorrow we head to Skagway by ferry and then back to Whitehorse YT and places east.
Now to my pictures:
The first set is just of the different mountains and roads we covered.
