G - Reporting
Left Tok after posting some postcards and got on the road to Chicken, Alaska - a town whose fame is much bigger than the town, it’s a tiny almost ex-gold mining town which has built its fame on being a tiny almost ex-gold mining town!
Downtown is 3 buildings: Cafe, Bar and souvenir store and down the road an RV park and that’s it, we had a coffee, picked up a bumper sticker and left.
Then it was up into the mountains and snow to get to the US/CDN border which was super easy in fact we ended stopping for 10 minutes chatting with the very affable border guard, before descending into Dawson city another ex-gold mining town but now very much a historical town/tourist attraction, for a relaxing evening and drinks in an ex-brothel now a rather great bar.
