Tok





We drove from Whitehorse YT. to Tok Alaska today. This completes the Alaskan highway part 1314 miles. Tomorrow we will head toward Anchorage and visit that area. We have had to make some choices on what we will have time to see and things we want to do. CAN'T DO THEM ALL. The road from Whitehorse to the Alaskan boarder was very rough and parts were gravel and not very well graded at that, also some delays for construction.
We stopped at a cafe just after Destruction Bay and had quite a visit with the owner, chef, and leader of the band. He was very informative guy. We reached the Alaskan boarder at 3PM. Alaskan time. then on to Tok and our campground. Some people at the visitor center were told that they couldn't head on up to Fairbanks because of a forest fire--we can see the smoke from where we are staying.
If you would like you can see an article that was written about us while we were at the GREEN GIANT at this web site;
