Travelling today from Dawson to Fairbanks.
The ferry used to cross the Yukon river. This is only used in summer, in winter when the river is frozen they just drive across.
The coach driving onto the ferry.
Getting to the other side
Training the sled dogs in summer - an quad bike with the motor taken out.
The border back into Alaska up ahead - no pictures allowed here, another time change.
Quite cold here - people have piled up stones.
Back in Alaska.
Some Caribou down the hill.
The shops in Chicken
A Chicken.
Chicken has it's own dredge museum.
Tok, we had a burger at "Fast Eddy's".
We had a surprise stop at a family run Barley Farm, Wrigley Farm.
The season was late this year, it was half way through May before spring planting.
One of the labour saving machines.
They mill their barley into flour & a porridge blend.
After the tour we had some homemade barley treats, it started to rain before we boarded the coach.

Santa Claus House. Some people got their picture taken with Santa.
