On our way to Alaska

[BGMAC]

We just arrived at Caribou Rv Park for the night just south of Whitehorse. It is packed I got the last spot and they side it will be like this to the end of the season. Nice place run by a German couple. When I told them I was military and lived in Germany for 3 years I got a discount. They serve authentic German food as well from a food trailer. Can’t wait to try the bratwurst .

Are there any big rigs, 40'-45', there?

There is a 42ft 5th wheel just up from me.

Btw; I have a hard time seeing the km/h on my inst panel so I downloaded a speedometer app to my phone. Works well.

Here is the site map. We’re in spot 9. They have about 12 spots that can handle over 40 ft. This would be one place you may need a reservation.
The bratwurst was great btw.

Great idea.

Well we made it to Dawson City up Hey 2 “Klondike Hwy”. The first third was ok. After that hold on to you hats. Bumps road sinking, and NO road is your treat for the day. It was rough to say the least. Then they had several miles of construction on the road where they took up the old one and you had a follow me truck through the construction site. No temp road. We had to move around all the equipment. Crazy. The motorhome looks like a dirt ball!
The Gold Rush Campground is a disaster. No grass at all. Very dusty and with the slide outs extended I maybe have a foot or so from my neighbors. If I wasn’t so tired I would have driven back to a different one. Now that I’m hooked up I’m only staying 3 nights. Oh yes expensive too. $71 per night. I expect higher rates since the season is so short, but…..

Here are some pics of the drive up.

That's basically a parking lot, not a campground. Hopefully you don't run into too many like that on your trip.
