We are continuing to head in the direction of home. Today we crossed into Canada and back into the Pacific time zone. Just a few miles down the Alaska Highway from Delta Junction, we crossed over a bridge that is dedicated to the Black Veterans of the Army Corps of Engineers who helped build the Alaska Highway in the early 1940s. It is the Gerstel River Bridge. It is one of four bridges, of the thirteen that were built along the Alaska Highway, that used the "steel through truss-style" of construction.
We saw some beautiful scenery in Alaska, along the way.
Then we entered Canada, the Yukon Territories.
We drove to Beaver Creek and found a very nice campground, the Discovery Yukon Lodging Campground.
They are building a new boardwalk over a cattail filled pond just across from our site.
This is a view of the mountains that are the other direction from the previous picture. you can also glimpse them in the photo of our campsite.
The next leg of our trip is to Haines Junction, tomorrow.
