Day 21 Sunday July 10 Tok RV village and cabins 600 kms total trip 6264 kms

Tonight, we have the cute log cabin to recuperate from a little burn out which caused an itinerary change. We are saving Whittier, the Portage Glacier hike and Valdez for next year and taking advantage of a scenic drive and the comfort of the cabin to refresh ourselves. We also treated ourselves with our friend Sharon’s antipasto which was a great boost to our spirits and an upgrade to the usual drab camp menus.

Here are some of the views, truly spectacular on this sunny Sunday especially on the Glen Highway running from Palmer East of Anchorage to the Tok Connector Highway.

Mt Sanford, Drum, Wrangell and Blackburn (16390 ft) with fireweed starting to bloom

Wrangell is the largest active volcano in Alaska

Klaus and Gabi travel in this Unimog called Rumpel, Klaus has been renovating it since 2019. They shipped it from Hamburg to Halifax. Slow and really noisy, tiny windows, it must be hot as hell in there with today’s 27 degree heat. But no need to try avoiding the potholes!

Good idea to take a break and happy to hear the antipasto provided a taste treat.

Glad you’re soaking it all in instead of speeding through. Have fun

These pics are just spectacular!

Hope you’re not feeling too burnt out. Travel is exhausting. Hope the cabin for a night was rejuvenating.
