On The Road South
For
two days we traveled further south. Our
first stop was at Carmacks where we repaired the vent on the ceiling fan and
then on to Teslin via Whitehorse. There
were lots of beautiful views when it wasn't raining. Unfortunately it did rain a lot. The rain let up when we stopped at
Whitehorse. We visited the
Transportation Museum with the world’s largest weather vane, a DC 3 that points
into the wind at all times. We also
drove over to the world’s longest fish ladder.
The ladder was built to allow spawning salmon to get around a
hydroelectric dam on the Yukon River.
Too bad we are about two weeks early before the salmon get to this point
in their migration. We will still get to
see the salmon as the ladder has a webcam that we can log into when we get
back.
