July 31, We left our spot and headed toward Tok, we where just about 20 miles away, fueled up and got a free truck and trailer wash. Decided to go back to Sourdough Campground for 2 nights, ate some lunch, Ken got the bugs off the front of the truck while I did a load of laundry. Sat around for a while, made steak for dinner and then went over to the pancake toss, nobody won a free breakfast.
August 1, Went in town to get some bandages for Ken’s ankle, he had scraped it open when going down the stairs at Kennecott Mine and it is oozing. Went to one of the shops in town, All Alaska’s Gift, and bought myself a new sweatshirt that zips up the front, have one that you must pull over your head, like the zip one better, I checked here earlier while passing through town but they were all too light weight, this one is heavy. We then went down to Fast Eddy’s for lunch, I really enjoyed the food. Went back to trailer, took a walk and just sat around the rest of the day. Made a dish of baked oatmeal, that should last a few days, while traveling.
August 2, We had dumped the trailer and filled the water tanks up before heading out of camp, headed toward Haines, Alaska. But first we must travel southeast toward the Yukon border, where we had gained 1 hour and then stopping for the night at Congdon Creek government campground, we had traveled about 300 miles going through the towns of Beaver Creek, Burwash Landing, where they have the largest Gold Pan, and then unto Destruction Bay. The scenery while traveling was beautiful, traveling along the Kluane Mountain Range.
