August 11th

I was up early this morning so I could take a shower, do laundry and be ready to go by 11:00 am. We traveled mostly over the same road that we came in on except for the road leading into Skagway from the Alaskan Highway. Unfortunately we were unable to see much because we were driving through clouds. We had talked about taking a train ride up White’s Junction to see the trestle bridges, tunnels and high cliffs that the train snakes through. After looking at a map we realized that we were going to be driving the same road except across the ravine from the railroad tracks. I’m glad we didn’t pay $200.00 to see that white-out of clouds. I did manage to get a few shots when the clouds cleared for a short time at the top. We did pass through the Continental Divide once again and we are currently 1 hour closer to the east coast time, only 3 hours different now. Though we traveled about 300 miles today through beautiful tundra and mountains, we once again, saw no wild life.
