Total km driven today 656 for a grand total of 3465.
I slept good last night but Caro did not. Breakfast was eggs and toast at the hotel restaurant.
We were on the road by 8:45 A.M.
We had a total of three pilot car lead sections of highway today.
We had some extra time today so we took a side trip to the town of Mayo. We went to a small museum there and according to the sign in book we were the first in two days. I wanted to see the spot where all the Galena ore from nearby mines was loaded on ships smaller than, but similar to, the SS Klondike for river shipment, eventually to refineries outside where the silver/tin and lead was extracted. It certainly wasn't amazing to see this tiny town (it used to have upwards of 30,000 people) , and really if not for the extra time we would have stayed on the main highway. The side trip took about 90 minutes to complete.
We got into Whitehorse shortly after five, did some shopping, picked up chili from Tim Horton's for supper and went up to our Air BNB (which we have for the next two nights).
