I never remembered the drive to Alaska being so long, or the road being so warped. If it wasn’t so beautiful and wild… why would anyone make the effort? Humans intact. Truck #2 intact. Travel trailer intact, (though I thought it was going to launch off the back of the truck several times.)
A couple nights ago we were camped in Stewart, BC under some tall pines, next to a small river. The fire was crackling. Between the trance of the flames and swatting mosquitoes, everyone was occupied. Then, we noticed a wolf quietly watching us from across the river, not 30 feet away. Was it sizing up Caiya, (our dog), in hopes of a meal should we leave our mutt unattended?
The wolf and other animals along the road kept us entertained. It’s a rush to be in situations where you aren’t the top of the food chain.
Our favorite ‘sighting’ was a fox who approached us in the middle of nowhere and spent a few minutes being our buddy. (See the photo, above).
We made it to the Anchorage area yesterday.
Great pictures. Loved the animals-bear, moose and the eagles. Love, Donna
