Greetings again...
Currently sitting just south of Glennallen. Limited to no cell or wi-fi. Comes and goes. Surprise... it's cold, raining and windy....Not really surprised. In Texas it's in the 90's+.
As mentioned, going through Canada after we learned the hard way in 2015. We turn off cell phone take the battery out store phone in a metal box to prevent any connections to system. Jokingly said.... but it was expensive..
As expected, fuel prices were shockers. Might think about selling everything and hitchhike home. DW says no...
Seen 3 mother bears with 3 clubs each. Couple of mountain goats and caribou. 2 rabbits and a bunch of prairie dogs. Not as much wildlife as expected.
Lake Louis was still iced over but still an awesome sight. Destruction bay, yep it too still iced over. We were surprised at how many lakes still had ice.
Haines was just as beautiful as always but you could see they were hit hard by lack of tourists.
Crossing the borders was quick and easy. We had our ArriveCan all prepared and less than 10 minutes were on our way.
