Monday, September 6th, was our 5th day away from home, our 4th full day at Congdon Creek Campground. I started the day just before 10:00 by taking Tucker with me for a drive to photograph mountains and whatever in the gorgeous sunshine. Our first stop was at the Slim’s...

Cathy and the dogs and I got home Friday night (September 10th) from our best “staycation” ever – 9 days with the RV at Congdon Creek Campground on Kluane Lake, with no cell service or Internet access. I’d had about all the covid and politics I could handle, so...

Cathy and I finally got away for a few days. We’ve had awful weather this summer, and I’m not feeling particularly well – when you add COVID-19 concerns, the thought of travelling just hasn’t been as exciting as it usually is. Getting the rig ready took much longer than...

Just after 09:00 on July 6, we left the pullout on the Alaska Highway along Kluane Lake where we had spent 3 nights and 2 days. We headed west, with no particular destination in mind, and not really even a good idea of when I’d go back home. In...

The final stop on our 14-day wander around the Yukon was Drury Creek Campground on Little Salmon Lake. We spent 4 nights there, from August 2nd until the 6th, and made a couple of drives to explore more of Faro, as well as shorter drives to explore other places....

Day 9 of this RV trip – Wednesday, August 1st – was spent on a 50-kilometer detour to see remote Ethel Lake Campground, after which I went to a full-service RV park at Carmacks so I could plug into electricity and have the air conditioners running to deal with...

On Day 8 of this RV trip – Tuesday, July 31st – I left the Dawson airport at about 4:20 pm after dropping Cathy off so she could fly home. I was heading back to the Robert Campbell Highway for some more exploring, and the first stop on the...

Day 3 of this RV trip – Thursday, July 26th – was an eventful one, and this is the third post where I talk about parts of that day. After exploring a bit of Faro, we had left just before 4:30, with the idea that that we would spend...

I’m writing this post while parked at a rest area high on the Top of the World Highway, with a panoramic mountain view to the north. It’s Day 5 of this RV trip, and I’ve decided to make a major change in the itinerary I had planned. Rather than...

We stopped early on the second day of this RV trip – Wednesday, July 25th. By 3:00 we were settled in at campsite #5 in Lapie Canyon Campground, just west of the access road to Ross River from the Robert Campbell Highway. With no firm plans again for Thursday,...
