JULY 25, 2012

This morning we left Fort Nelson, BC to head to Liard River, BC.  We have a 189 mile drive today.  This is another travel day.  When we arrived and settled in, most people headed over to the hot springs for a dip.  There are three levels in the hot springs,,,,,hot, hotter and hottest.  It was a bit of a walk through the woods to the hot springs with lots of mosquitoes.  Here is a picture of a few of our group in the hot springs.

Our sites are all in the same area of the campground but lots of trees in between each site so that we can't even see our neighbors.  We stayed in for the night to relax.  Played a little cribbage and got to be early for a change.  


JULY 26, 2012------WATSON LAKE, YUKON TERRITORIES




Had to drive 130 miles today to get to Watson Lake in the Yukon Territories.  Another spot on our map below filled in.  The Maps are starting to look really good.  


This afternoon we all got together and went to the signpost forest.  This is where people put up all kinds of signs saying who they are and where they are from.  There are over 10,000 signs posted here.  
The caravan has a signed that we put up for our Alaska Caravan.  Jesse made a sign for us.  Here is a picture of Jesse putting up our sign.  It is fun to walk through here and see if you can find people that you know who have come here before you.  

Over 10,000 signs behind us
