Thursday September 23rd (
Beaver Creek to Whitehorse
Distance 285 Miles
An overcast day with some snow flurries, what a contrast from the weather from the beginning of our travels.
We stopped at the visitors center in Haines Junction, a real nice center with a lot of interesting stuff in it. We also watch a 15min video of the history of the region. Tomorrow is the last day they will be open for the season. We felt that we lucky to get to places before they close for the season, but how much longer can this happen we are wondering . We thought we better high tail south before all the places are closed. We were recommended a camp ground in Whitehorse, yes that closed for the season. We had to look around a bit to find a camp that was open. There were about 16 spaces to park with electric hook ups, and we got the 2nd to last vacant spot. As our cell phone does not work in Canada we used Skype to call some folks and that seem to work out o.k. We did have a few problems with both our computers but Holly spent some time and got them sorted out. We also watched the live streaming of Channel 2 News In Anchorage. 
Hard to believe how quickly the weather has changed....even snow all ready! You certainly will want to be getting south as quick as you can.
