Skagway

Since we left Hyder we have been on one night stops at Dease Lake, Watson Lake, and Teslin On Friday the 2ND of July we traveled to Skagway where we are for four nights
Last night the 3RD they did there fire works and we had a nice show The RV park we are staying in is between town and the harbor where they fired off the fire works and we are looking out at the harbor
The town is about a block or so from the RV park It is a nice small town with quite a bit of history This is where the gold miners left from to find their fortune of gold in the Yukon very few found their fortune The struggle was hard as the were required to take a ton of supplies with them up a very steep trail called the Chilkoot Trail
Weather has been cool here and cloudy most of the day and a little rain most every day
They had a 4TH of July Parade today and a lot of games for the kids There was only one cruise ship in port today and not many people went in to town
We are having a great time and seeing a lot of beautiful country Road are two lanes and a little narrow We have had some gravel roads but they are in pretty good shape
That is about it from the north our next move will be to Whitehorse on Tuesday
