We were told by numerous people that there was a neat place to watch bears fishing for salmon in the Hyder, Alaska, area. It’s a little ranger station run by the US Forest Service. We usually try to avoid organized things like that, but it was really cool to see a grizzly bear fishing from the safety of their boardwalk.

One of our prettiest camp spots of the trip was camping on a mining road above the Salmon Glacier in British Columbia near the Alaskan border. The glacier is beautiful and it was neat to be repeatedly engulfed in clouds. Cool camp spot. 🚛 #wabisabioverland #expeditiontruck #expeditionvehicle #overlandadventure #unimog #unimogcamper

However, the weather front really did hit Yukon and northern British Columbia right when we got there. We had two nights of ridiculous wind from the north followed by a morning of driving through 100 miles of snow. It was pretty great and made a really awesome, crisp, frosted look to the landscape. 🚛 #wabisabioverland #expeditiontruck #expeditionvehicle #overlandadventure #unimog #unimogcamper

After hurrying through Skagway to avoid weather, we needed to slow down a bit. 🚛 #wabisabioverland #expeditiontruck #expeditionvehicle #overlandadventure #unimog #unimogcamper

At this campspot in the Yukon, we ended up sharing a camp spot with a nice German couple that turned out to be the parents of an expedition couple that we had met a few days earlier in Alaska. They were there to meet up with their son and daughter-in-law and travel together for a while. They were super into our truck and it was fun to talk expedition trucks with them. 🚛 #wabisabioverland #expeditiontruck #expeditionvehicle #overlandadventure #unimog #unimogcamper

There was a big cold weather front coming down from the north, so the wind in Haines really started picking up and we changed our plans a bit and got a standby trip on the ferry to Skagway to jump ahead in our route before the weather hit. It worked out great and we were able to get a nice camp spot in the Yukon before the wind really picked up. 🚛 #wabisabioverland #expeditiontruck #expeditionvehicle #overlandadventure #unimog #unimogcamper
