June 12, 2013 We are on our way

The plan was to leave at 9:30, well no plans really go the way they were meant to be,  it ended up being 11:30 before we actually left

And in honor of my friend Dom who just staying with us, I jump on the bike and only then remember that I didn't have my wallet, credit cards debit card. and I had just got through notifying my bank that I was leaving the country.

Anyway Dom had some trouble with his wallet/cards and so did I.

No one is perfect

 An awful lot of construction going on right now

Matanuska Glacier in all of it's glory

The mountains surrounding the new viewing area

great place to send your tourists 

Sharon and I had a little disagreement on were the following picture should be taken there was a place on the Tok cutoff were a person could get a beautiful picture of Mt. Drum and Mt. Stanford. But I had a better idea, instead of listening to my wife, because she was right. I said we have to go up to at least mi 60 to get the better picture. The picture you seeing here is actually the north side of Mt. Blackburn the same mountain you see coming in to Glenallen

North Side of Mt Blackburn

We camped at Eagle Claw Motorcycle Campground in Tok

I contacted Vanessa the owner about reserving the TP I thought it would be a neat place to camp in. So we pulled up in front of it getting ready to set up camp, Vanessa came up to tell us that she would prefer if we didn't use it because she is having trouble drying it out. She  suggested we use the bunk house instead

This area has units you can use to cook your own meals

Fire wood is available

Community area, boys and girls out house, propane stove to heat water and cooking area. Vanessa has got artisan well on her property which she supplies in the blue jugs. It tastes great 

Really would have liked to try the TP out maybe on the way back home
