Miles Today 255 total
11461
We enjoyed our 2nd night in the cabins and got up
ready for our trek back to Tok. It was
really cold going through the pass and the clouds were down covering the hills
and the glacier.
We stopped a couple of
times to get more layers on and then, someone turned the switch, and the sun
came out and we stopped to take the layers off. We stopped by a beautiful lake
and I made us some lunch.

One funny incident happened whilst here, we were
approached by an American guy, who on seeing we were British, went on to praise
the RAF for bombing the airport in the Falklands, back in 1982. (He was a big
fan of the Vulcan bomber) Only to be so
excited to find out that Ray had been a sapper there and had filled in the
hole, you really do not know who you are
going to meet.
Again, we stopped at Glenallen and refueled. There are not that many roads for alternate
journeys, and then hit the Tok road. Again very pleasant scenery, but it was all
about doing the miles.
Towards the end of our journey, having not seen much
wildlife, I spotted 3 lumps in a marsh area.
I made the mistake of mentioning to Ray and before I could say, 3 moose,
we had dived down a dirt track, abandoned the bike, and armed with bear spray
and the camera, trekked through the undergrowth for these pictures. I hope you appreciate our efforts.
