We stopped for the night at Pelly Crossing, the site of the previous ferry crossing, until the highway was put through in 1950. There is a small Selkirk Heritage Center and about 200 Selkirk natives still live in the small community. There is a great campground across the highway that offers FREE camping and FREE firewood, already cut for you. Free is always good. We snagged a beautiful site on the river and have a good view of the south so our Satellite Dish can go up and find the Satellite and allow us to do this blog by the river. We decided to stay a couple of days to relax. Today is summer solstice and I don’t believe it ever did get dark last night.

ReplyDeleteHi Marv & Ellen,
ReplyDeleteYou'll have to think back to AZ in April to remember us. Marv installed 4 solar panels on our Dutch Star. That was one of our first preps for our AK adventure which is planned for 2010. Good to see your blog and found you on the DS map as we were following some other friends the Tiltons (6558). It seems you are taking the same itinerary as they are, which is what we were planning too, so will be following your time in the 49th state. The last time I was in AK, I was only 6, so I'm sure it has changed. We can hardly wait.
