The game seems to have come to a stand still so I'll put on anouther Picture. This place was originally burnt down then was rebuilt a few years ago.
I don't believe I have been here before. Perhaps a clue?

Someone that has faired from Washington to Alaska should know this one but I have not done it.

You got it!!! This was our departure point on my Alaska trip in '07 on my DL1000. We made a similar trip in '08 in the cage. We took the ferry up to Juneau and then caught the cross-gulf ferry over to Whitier and then on up into Alaska. We rode all the way home (no ferry). Highly recommended, although we are now planning another AK trip in '12 (on the SuperT) and will ride all the way both directions.

Your turn for a picture!!

What a long, strange trip it's been.

The Inside Passage is very cool! That route cannot be seen from a bike. The best of AK, IMHO.

Love Homer, Sitka, Kodiak and up out of Skagway, too. Beautiful stuff. All accessible via the Alaska Marine Highway System.

Do it!

Yes, I'm a believer in the AMHS. On the portion from Bellingham to Juneau, we "tented" on the fantail of the ferry. It was great!

Skagway is off limits for a little while. There is some nasty construction on the Carcross highway just now. Don't want to have to deal with it. Hopefully, they'll be done with it soon. You can go around it via Jake's Corner and Tagish, but it's another 100 miles or so. Maybe next weekend.


Whoa ... sun's up. Heh heh R
