Today was fairly uneventful. No wildlife was sighted and no particularly significant sights, just the “usual” forested land, lots of lakes, some mountains and small communities and businesses along the way. The only significant town we passed through after crossing the continental divide was Teslin on our way to Whitehorse, Yukon Territory where we shopped for groceries and camped at Wal-Mart. We finished the day by seeing a huge old restored paddle-wheel steam ship called the SS Klondike that used to travel the Yukon River. The river was the primary method for transporting goods and people to the interior prior to land roads and railroads. After that we took a long walk along the Yukon River that flows through the city.
