After a week of rain and no SUN, we drove from Skagway to White Horse, YT. This is our most northern point in the journey and we will start back tomorrow. Road from Skagway to Alaska Highway is very scienic and goes though 10,,000 feet peaks , huge water falls and a a very very desert . White Horse is the capital of Yukon, i will post pictures tomorrow. There are twice as many Moose than people here, but people are friendlier. We met a local who is from Serbia.

We are staying at a campground at Takhini hot springs. It was freezing cold last night , so we are going to buy more winter stuff today. JAgdish loves the wood gathering and cleaning , so it works out well. I like the feeling of outdoors. Last night wolves were hauling all night....sort of cool. The hot springs are very nice. No internet there , so i may not post something tonight but i will catch up tomorrow. Right now, i am sending this from the down town and found a hot spot :) Take care and talk to you soon.
