On Sunday, we drove from Whitehorse to Little Salmon Lake. The day was sunny and our drive along the Klondike Highway pleasant in spite of the narrow road. We hoped to find ice on Little Salmon Lake, and we did. The last of the ice vanished in the sun and wind as we watched from our lakeside campsite. If you turn the sound up on the video, you can hear the ice as it moves in the wind.

We found out that the Top of the World Highway opened early so today we drove to Dawson City. We’ll take the ferry across the Yukon tomorrow and enter the US at the most northern border crossing.  We drove in rain almost all of the day after a clear morning with low clouds. The clouds closed in, and the rain began.
