Yukon RVing: Back to Kluane Lake

For me and my family, Kluane Lake is an amazingly calming place, so last Friday, I got the RV loaded, and when Cathy got off work, I met her at the first rest area north of Whitehorse. In a few minutes, we had her Tracker hooked up to the...

Yukon RVing: Exploring around Kluane Lake (Part 2)

Monday had been a busy and yet very relaxing day, and the plan was for the next couple of days to be similar. We got off to a late start Tuesday morning (July 14 – I’m getting way behind!). Monty slept with me as usual, and Bella and Molly...

Yukon RVing: Exploring around Kluane Lake

Although I had planned to be on the road for much of the 2 weeks that Cathy was visiting family in Ontario, it didn’t work out that way, for a few reasons, one of them the weather. July has been very wet in Whitehorse, dampening both the forests and...

BC RVing: White Pass, BC/Alaska border (Part 2)

Our second night boondocking in the White Pass with the RV was once again warm and silent, and I kept the bedroom windows open to enjoy both. The dogs got their first walk just before 06:00 on Sunday, and the light was beautiful. It looked like t was going...

Yukon RVing: Dawson City

As slow-paced and relaxing as this trip was, there’s never enough time. After a leisurely morning and lunch at Tombstone Mountain Campground on Monday, we started the 113 kilometer (70 mile) drive to Dawson City just before 1:00. We stopped for a photo at the Welcome to Dawson sign,...

Yukon RVing: Tombstone Mountain Campground

I ended my last post at the Dempster Junction fuel stop late Saturday afternoon. Cathy and I had been looking forward to getting back on the Dempster Highway for a long time, and Tombstone Campground at Km 71.7 was our planned home for the next two nights. At 4:40...

Yukon RVing: Carmacks

We’ve just returned home from 9 days on the roads of the Yukon with the RV – our longest trip with it yet. I had little Internet access during that time (and didn’t do any blog writing in any case), so I’m playing catch-up now. Part 1 of the...
