#23 RA: Beringia Interpretive Center
5. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
First: Highly recommend!
I'm a bit of an ice age junkie so learning more about Beringia (huge land area NOT covered by glaciers that includes the Bering Sea "land bridge") was great fun! I'm a nerdLue lisää
#22 RA: Random Paddle Wheel
5. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
No information about why this thing is here. My mom thinks this is the most ridiculous RA yet.
Rest Area Overnight
4. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
I just couldn't enough driving to get to Teslin, so we stopped here. Still beautiful. The mountains are actually remnants off much more massive mountains. These are just the ridiculously hard magmaLue lisää
#21 RA: Watson Lake
4. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
Sign post forest. There were just too many to read them all. Found a couple I thought picture worthy. Also did laundry! I'm a big fan of Watson Lake.
MatkaajaBring them to AK. We have to drive right by on the way home. Better yet, make/order a sign! The original idea was how many km to a location (home). You could map Watson Lake to Luke Holler...
Muncho Lake Overnight
3. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
We stopped 2x for RAs, but they were both no more. Bummer. At least our campsite is gorgeous again. 🤷♀️
#20 RA: A Sad Bigfoot
3. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
The Sasquatch Crossing business is closed, and their wooden Bigfoot has seen better days. 😞
Boondocking Win
2. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
Sometimes boondocking lands you next to a semi running their refer all night, and sometimes you find a hidden gem. It took 3 km of bumpy roads to get here, but this recreation area is lovely.
#19 RA: The Alcan
2. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 18 °C
First milestone was getting across the border. This feels like the second... we are officially on the road to the north.

Beaverlodge, AB boasts a visitor's center with a tea room (free!), mini museums for art and history, a gift shop, and a BEAVER!
#17 RA: Sundial
2. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
An embarrassing amount of time was spent to find this because the address was wrong. And it's kind of a nothing burger. On to the next stop!
#16 RA: Dragonfly
1. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
There is even a sign on the highway that it exists. It's to celebrate all the dragonflies that hatch each year at the local lake.
Also... still raining.
#15 RA: Talus Balls
1. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
A big pile of balls - what more do you need in life? 😆
Turns out, the under the bridge pullout also had a little pictograph collection showing the history of Edmonton. Another surprise find!

#15 RA: World's Largest Sausage
1. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
Ukranian sausage to celebrate the founding of a very successful sausage company in the little town. 42 ft makes it the tallest piece of meat in the world (says the listing on Atlas Obscura).
#14 RA: The Pysanka
1. kesäkuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 9 °C
Pysanka is Ukranian for Easter egg. It spins like a weather vane! See pics first more details. Video shows the spin.
#13 RA: Penguin
31. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 10 °C
We stumbled upon the penguin on accident! We were trying to find our overnight spot. Ended up in a completely empty campground instead. The gates were open... I hope that means we're good here. 🤷♀️
#12 RA: Mountie, Horse, and Bison
31. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 22 °C
We came for the Mountie, but it turns out the bison sculpture is where it's at. Called "Don't Fence Me In", the entire sculpture is made out of barbed wire! Incredible.
#11 RA: Biggest Baseball Bat
31. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 22 °C
We mapped to a mistake and happened on the bat. Seems our luck is turning! The constant drizzle of rain is not dampening my spirits!
#10 RA: Snowman
31. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌬 21 °C
Kenaston is billed as the blizzard capital of Saskatchewan.
#9 RA: Big Kettle and Tea Cup +
31. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌬 20 °C
We came for the Kettle, the Cup was a bonus. Then there was a statue and a dump wagon, so a little history, too! Cute little gazebo thing in the park as well. Win, win, win. 😀
Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, CANADA!
30. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌧 20 °C
We've made it across the border! Staying in the visitor's center lot. Not fancy, but free.
#8 RA: Tommy Douglas and some wheat
30. toukokuuta, Kanada ⋅ 🌬 23 °C
Douglas was a premier of Saskatchewan, but the statue exists because he was the father of Canada's universal health care system. He was voted Greatest Canadian of All Time in 2004.
#7 RA: Windy Day Visit to a Windmill
30. toukokuuta, Yhdysvallat ⋅ 🌬 19 °C
Some history in the pics if you are interested.
Sykeston instead of Sikeston
29. toukokuuta, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
We are fixed and on the road again. Didn't get very far, but stoked to not be cooling our heels in Fargo for the weekend. Thanks to whoever sacrificed their goat! Here are some pics of the city parkLue lisää
What's the story, Morning Glory?
29. toukokuuta, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
At least the "customer lounge" is pretty nice. The camper is in a bay, and we're waiting on an assessment of damage. Please keep your fingers crossed, make an offering at an alter, or send a prayer...Lue lisää
How Many Tow Trucks can a Tow Truck Tow?
28. toukokuuta, Yhdysvallat ⋅ ☀️ 34 °C
Day 3, 4, 5, more? Delay: A ND state trooper, a AAA tow truck, a heavy load tow truck, and a light load tow truck. Ending up with a jerry rigged situation and a "limp back". So, 50 miles back toLue lisää
