My big Yukon/Alaska ride of 2018
« on: July 06, 2018, 10:39:00 PM »
As some of you may know I was given the opportunity to go on an adventure of a lifetime this summer. I joined Mark "Big Dog" Sampson on a 5400 mile trip through Canada and Alaska on our Africa Twins. I am totally intrigued by all things Alaska and when I first learned of this trip I was all in. But then the hard decisions had to be made. What to take? Will my current camping gear cut it? Lots of back and forth but in the end it was a mix of both old and new. I was going to try and do a Trip Report here myself but Mark has his own website and does a much better job then I could ever dream of. So if you want to read all about our trip use this link to go to Mark's write up. http://bigdogadventures.com/Tuktoyaktuk.htm

I am still looking through the story, so much to take in.
Gotta say couple of the signs really gave me a chuckle
