Midnight in Dawson

There are no street lights here, it is that light out.

Old gambling hall and Poker playing in Dawson

Long Day

We had to display our route in two maps, one from Dawson City to Chicken, then from Chicken to Fairbanks.  We crossed the border back into the US in a very remote part of country.

We hope to make a run to Prudhoe Bay tomorrow, depending on the weather, which would be about 500 miles.


Top of the World Highway

What a great ride today, it is hard to describe just how beautiful this road is, it is in middle of hundreds of miles of rolling hills and dramatic valleys.  It was a mostly dirt road, with some paved areas, which offered challenges and the ability for some quick runs to 100 mph+ - all on over 100 miles of windy mountain road.  We also stopped in Chicken for a quick bite to eat, and pick up a few t-shirts.
