Deadman Lake, Alaska - Kluane Lake, Yukon

Day 25 – Tuesday, August 23 2005
Deadman Lake, Alaska – Kluane Lake, Yukon
Miles Driven: 182

Leaving Deadman Lake we continued down the Alaska Highway toward the Canadian border. Back in the Yukon, we had a great surprise when a cow moose and her baby crossed the road right in front of us. They were not in a hurry so we had plenty of time to stop and get pictures and video. We were a bit surprised that we had not seen any moose in Alaska, only in the Yukon. We camped for the night at Congdon Creek Yukon Government Campground on Kluane Lake. The lake was a beautiful turquoise color, but since the wind was blowing we picked a spot away from the shoreline and sheltered by the trees. We had some fun on the playground equipment, who says we’re too old for a tire swing and slide?
