Alaskan Highway South (Teslin to Dawson Creek)

Well, it's been awhile, but after Leaving Teslin, I travelled the rest of the Alaskan Highway all the way to Dawson Creek in about 10 days time (about 1,200 miles total). Scenery was very good, although not as good as my trip up on Hwy 37, the Cassier Highway. Nothing really of note on this leg; I was trying to leave Alaska behind as quickly as possible. The weather along the way had been much better than Alaska: mid-70's during the day and sunny. One note of accomplishent on this leg was arrival in Dawson Creek, the traditional start of the Alaskan Highway. It felt really good to be done with that part of the trip! After Dawson, it is on to Jasper National Park and Banff, Calgary, then Montana! Anyway, here are some chosen photos of my journey. Don't forget, I have many more photos at www.tomsphotosonline.com (look at the bottom right of the page for the latest entries):
