  • We arrive in Dawson City to good news that allows us to head to Tuktoyaktuk, NWT!
    Our adventures lead to an over 1,100-mile drive on gravel roads from Dawson City to Tuktoyaktuk taking two ferries and making stops in Fort McPherson and Inuvik along the Dempster Highway. It was an incredible drive taking us through several distinct biomes and culminating with a stop in the Arctic tundra. We experience 24-hour sunlight for the first time in our lives, swim in the Arctic Ocean, and live in "The Pickle," our Autohome roof-top-tent, for four days on this adventure.
    Back in Dawson City, we finally get in a hike up Dome Mountain and Kelly gets caught up on work while Jason explores Dodge No. 4, the largest wooden-hulled dredge in North America. Our last night in Dawson City, and Canada, we headed to the Sourdough Saloon to drink a Sourtoe Cocktail. This is a shot of alcohol, normally Yukon Gold whiskey, with a floater of an amputadde and mummified toe. With steel lined stomachs, and a bit of courage, we both drank this toe-tini.
    The next morning we waited in line for the ferry to cross the Yukon on our last portion of our Journey to Alaska. See you next time as we begin our Alaskan Adventure!
