The Last Legs Of Our Trip

Alright, here are some pictures of the last couple days of our trip. These cover from St. John's, British Columbia to Girdwood, Alaska. It took us two full days of driving to cover a little over 1,000 miles. On this leg of the trip some of the notable towns we passed through were Watson Lake, which claims a tourist attraction of the Sign Post Forest; Whitehorse, the capital of the Yukon and bigger than expected; Tok, the first recognizable town upon re-entering the U.S. and of course Anchorage.

Surprisingly we didn't see as much wild life as expected, but we did come across some wild buffalo that stopped us in our tracks. They were a bit intimidating when they looked down at us as we drove by. Since then we have come across some moose and Mako wears a bear bell when we go hiking.
