8-16-09: Mostly a travel day today; we took the Alaska (AlCan) Hwy south instead of going north through Chicken and the Klondike Hwy (the way we came up) and got to see some new vistas. We took a stretch break at the Tetlin Nat’l Wildlife Refuge Visitors Center and could see the distant mountain peaks from Wrangell-St. Elais Nat’l Park and Preserve from the outside deck. In the Burwash Landing-Destruction Bay area, we gazed upon the beautiful, light blue-green color of Kluane Lake which had lots of whitecaps from the stiff wind blowing over it.Our next stop was at Haines Junction for a late lunch-early dinner. We reached Whitehorse, Yukon around 7 pm and landed at the Robert Service Campground again.
