Whitehorse to Watson Lake - Alaska Highway

4 September 2017

We decided to head south from Whitehorse to Muncho Lake. Our plan was to make it to Liard River hotsprings on the first night, but that didn't happen due to a flat tire.

Decided to stop at Squanga Lake for lunch. There's a Yukon government campground there with a dock and boat launch area.

One of the truck tires went flat after a construction zone near Rancheria. After changing the tire, we realized it wasn't repairable so started hoping a replacement would be available in Watson Lake.

We arrived near Watson Lake at about 6:30 pm so decided to overnight at the Watson Lake campground and then look for a new tire tomorrow.
