Haines Road, Yukon
24 June 2008 p.m.
At Haines Junction we headed south on the Haines Road, with the goal of camping overnight at Million Dollar Falls Yukon Gov't campground. The Haines Road is beautiful but often windy. Even so, the photo opportunities are plentiful!

campground
The campground at Million Dollar Falls was closed. No signs were posted to indicate why although we assumed it was due to bear activity in the area. Before getting to the campground road we ventured down a short side road across the river from the Million Dollar Falls campground entrance to take a short break.

We considered staying but there were clouds to the north and it was getting chilly. So we headed north to the Dezadeash Lake Yukon Gov't campground.

There were only two others sites occupied. The night was quiet, except for the wind.
