Alaksa Part 2

Billy taking a whiff of the hat that you may wear when taking part in the Sour Toe Drink. Colleen OUR NEW FRIEND taking photo's. Stacie remarked " I'd rather suck that toe than put the hat on my head"
Darth and his worn ridden state after our trip.








Salmon Glacier just out of Hyder,Ak.



This young man had it made , his Dad was riding a Gold wing as he relaxed in his Cabin, complete with tunes,DVD, and commo with his Dad. They had ridden from New Jersey.













Taken near Homer,Ak.


The eagles were near the road into Homer.
























Your's truely and his lovely wife in Homer on the beach .














Another shot from the coast of Homer.


































We went on a bush whacking hike in Denali with 10 other hikers to explore NATURE. What you have here is bear .





















In Denali on our adventure hike.





















More Mountains on our hike.

























Stacie just loves my outfits and for me it is all about comfort. A style WAY before it's time.

























A view while we were at Chena hot Springs































Stacie trespassing on this Gander's territory . As soon as she stepped back far enough he quit pecking her.





























Chena Hot Springs , was nice to relax and get a soak in after our previous day's ride.





























At Chena H.S. they have a musher compound . We visited at feeding time , nice pups!



































The woman has a thing with critters, reminds me of Ellie Mae. LOL





































You guessed it another storm to ride through and get wet.

































Wooden art on the lawn of THE KNOTTY SHOP Salcha ,Ak.












































This was a campground Thompson's Eagle's Claw Motorcycle Park .Tok,Ak nice C.G. but we couldn't get over the kitchen and Outhouse located adjacent to one another. I guess if the meal is bad you don't need to run far for relief....











































While riding the Dempster to and from Arctic Circle a few bolts rattled loose and in this case it was the wind screen on Stacie bike. I tried tie wraps and they didn't hold well enough , finally resorted to bunger cords. ALWAYS carry extra Bungee's .










































Taken in Dawson City on top of Midnight Dome.















































Showing our support with the ADV wave.

















































Dawson City on the river at evening , don't know to call it sunset since it never did.

















































Billy and the Sour Toe Cocktail .




















































Stacie and her Sour Toe cocktail , funny I told her the first photo didn't turn out so she had to lick the toe once more to get a GOOD SHOT! LOL






















































The mummified Toe is preserved in salt and kept in the Freezer. There are two of them that are used and people donate their toes for this cause.
























































This guy brought back memories of my childhood. Walter a neighbor had one these and we used to climb on a fence to be able to mount it. This guy was having a blast.


























































Lynn swore and cussed trying to figure out how to put up her tent. "I've done this before" she remarked but the pressure of us watching was just too much. I still find this photo hilarious. You go woman. You Don't need no stinkin directions!




























































Your's truely trying to dry out after we had ridden in rain for two days getting to Dawson City . We had clothes and gear hanging in the trees to dry out .






























































You want Bugs , we got em. Taken on THE DEMPSTER .
































































Bella Coola Valley , again this was a geat destination and well worth the time to check out.


Some people take the Ferry to B.C. and ride into Ak. from here .




































































Bella Coola Valley


































































This was the garden shower located at Eagle Lodge 1/2 way between Hegensborg and Bella Coola.
