Map - Dease Lake to Highway 37 Junction

Little Nugget RV Park, Highway 37 Junction YT (1 star)

Lee noted along the way that we entered a province or territory today in which we had never been. We are now in the Yukon.

The road from Dease Lake was not bad. There are some rough spots but they are marked with red warning signs in the ditch. We moved along most of the way at about 80 kph.

Just past the Alaska Highway junction we stopped for the night at the Little Nugget RV Park. It's the only one in the area and was over-priced and short on adequate Wi-Fi. It is obviously catering to Americans coming from or going to Alaska.

Wi-fi was available in the laundry room. Lee has never before used a Maytag dryer as a computer desk. It worked out pretty good.

Ah yes, the Yukon. There is a LOT of forest here and today, we have a cloudy, windy, cold day. Not something we are accustomed too! Just under 14C. Fortunately we are in a powered site and can put on our fireplace, or use the propane heating system. We are not suffering by any means. WIFI is IFFY. We spent some time in the laundry facility here with two other couples and a large lab (dog). What can I say Cozy! We did take advantage of our free WIFI to touch base with family, but could not use it for heavy duty usage, file transfers (photos, etc). Hopefully connections with family made it through, as we weren't there long enough to get responses.

Hey Buddy! Let's design a computer desk that has a stand which can be used for a front loader washer/dryer.
