Continental Divide, YT to Teslin, YT
78 miles

Guess what, we saw more trees today. Mountains are visible in the
distance but are mostly covered up by rain clouds.

Wild strawberries grow everywhere around here. We stopped for about 30
minutes today munching on these goodies. When services are nearly 80
miles apart, you have to get creative.

I get the dumbass of the day award. Because the scenery is just pine
trees, I often put my head down and follow the white line. Glenn, who
rides in front of me, stops once in while for a break. Wham, I ran into
him today while he had stopped and I knocked him over. I ended up
breaking his mirror. OK, so I have to pay attention. On down the road,
Glenn stops again but makes sure I am far enough behind. I had about a
100 yards to realize this but ran into him, again. This time I only
managed to knock one of his bags forward on the rack. Apparently,
nothing stops the Woo train.

We made to long trek into Teslin where they have a grocery store. We
loaded up and Yukon Motel and RV has donated a campsite to us. As of
right now, we are waiting on the porch for the rain to pass over. Cold,
wet, tired, and hungry... and I paid to do this

Good night.

Jin, Glenn, Josh
1 mile at a time...
