We’ve seen more wildlife along the side of the Alaskan Highway than at any of the national parks. Today, we saw a few more bison, a wolf, and 8 bears (no bear families today). Valerie’s mom is very excited whenever we encounter wildlife. We sometimes slow down the RV to take pictures when it is safe to do so.

We stopped by the signpost forest in Watson Lake and the nearby visitor center. We watched a short movie about the construction of the Alaskan Highway and then received a whole lot of helpful information from a Yukon tourism associate.
Our campsite was the Yukon Motel in Teslin, YT. It has free WiFi in the restaurant, which serves pies and cinnamon rolls. It is located just after the bridge to Teslin, so bridge noise might keep up light sleepers (like Valerie).
