"My tiger Friend has got the sled, And I have packed a Snack"

Greetings Blog Readers! Birgit and I are headed to the Yukon - I will leave on Saturday and Birgit will join me Sunday. She has already mapped out 2.4 million geo-caches that must be found and plethora of trails that must be hiked. You all will learn about the Yukon as we go - but here is the general schedule: Sunday - depart on the MV Columbia from Ketchikan to Haines - 2 days on the ferry with stops in Wrangell, Petersburg, Sitka and Juneau, and arriving in Haines on Tuesday morning. Drive to Whitehorse and spend a couple days there and then it is off to Dawson City. A couple days in Dawson City and then back to Whitehorse for a few more days and then down to Carcross and Skagway. We ferry from Skagway back to Ketchikan. Here are a few photos of Thorne Bay - and I am PACKED and ready to go - and I depart at 5:30am tomorrow. WHEEEEEEE

We're all set for the trip ahead, We're never coming back!

And 16 failing anchor chains. But in true Alaskan spirit the ferry system made an emergency repair and we are back in business. We are now in Clarence Strait and heading to Wrangell. Here are some photos of our morning: This is the weather map this morning We also had some Hookers at the ferry terminal. Both Nolan and Logan were there lo...
