No sleep for the wicked!



Woke up to alot of dew, wet carpet and those damn black birds! Went for a walk while Muck and Bird rode their bikes down a huge grass hill and around the camp ground. It's crazy to see Trace ride a bike let alone watching him race down what could possibly be the most awesome tubing hill if there were snow! I did get it on video to prove the he did it without wrecking. After breakfast and getting packed up we hit the showers and Trace did some dog watching and visiting with the local folks. Andrew was listening to the convo that Trace was having and the man asked him where he lived and he said Utah. He asked him where he was going , he said Alaska. And he asked what part? And Trace replied, Alaska! (I thought it was good of him not to tell a stranger the exact details! Good job Muck!) Well thanks for watching my dog, said the man.
Off we drove down the HWY at 10:30, there are some beautiful views and some awesome jagged mountains- some snow capped and some not but alot like the Tetons. Alot of water also. Everywhere you look, Water! Every mile a new lake! We stayed the night at Mosquito Creek campground,apthy named. We had dutch oven potatoes and steak. Mtn's are spectacular and the streams are very cold and clear! Like a glass of water! There are huge glaciers hanging from the mountains, sometimes 300 to 400 ft. thick!
