After a nice day touring Whitehorse we depart southbound on
the Alaskan Highway about 230 miles to the Highway 37 Cassier Highway
turnoff. Just south of Teslin
Junction I experience my first and only flat tire on the Jeep after something
flew up off the roadway and struck the running board and rear tire. After a quick change we continue toward
the junction.
After fueling here we continue south on the Cassier. We have learned that “highway” has a
variable meaning up here. The
northern part of this road has no shoulders (none), narrow lanes for a two-lane
road, and has frost heaves and potholes abounding. Traffic is heavier than on the Alaska Highway. I must note, however, that the next
north-south road west of here is in Japan somewhere. We climb, descend, twist and turn for 53 miles down to the
Boya Lake Provincial Park where we camp for the night on the shores of a
beautiful lake. It rains most of
the night making for a good nights sleep.
