There were at least 3 places along the way touting their "world famous" cinnamon buns. We were finally worn down by the third one we came to and stopped at the Braeburn Lodge to see what all the fuss was about. It was certainly the largest bun I'd (and Andi!) had ever seen and I guess that's what makes them famous.
We made a special side trip to Carmacks, YT because The Milepost said there were 5 nice hikes where you could look for agates in the area. We went to two different information centers in town and were met with blank looks when we inquired just where to find these amazing trails. We did a little Google-fu and found info on the Plume Agate mine. We're not quite sure if we found the kind of agates mined there but it was a really fun hike and we found a lot great rocks to run through the tumbler.
Then we were lucky enough to find Cottonwood RV park right on the shores of Kluane Lake. It was by far the most beautiful RV park we stayed at the entire trip. The fact that there was a grizzly bear hanging out there only added to the charm, although it upped our concern for our tent-camping neighbors. The moon photo was taken at about 12:20 AM.
Our very first gold-panning experience. It didn't pan out (har har), and the water and rain were freezing, but boy was it exciting. It's the little things for us.
