Up the mountain

Today was the first day we both had off together since the snow has melted on the road up Montana Mountain. So, of course, we went up the mountain. The truck performed every bit as well as the jeep. I only had to adjust the truck's width inward on one short stretch. Most users of the road are ATV's so you can't keep a full size truck on the tracks unless you suck it in a little.
Unfortunately, it is a three day weekend for Canadians (Canada Day is 7/1) so too many people had the same idea. That means no bears or caribou to see. And some tight squeezes for passing. But it should come as no surprise that we found interesting rust and rocks to bring home. And we did see one bear on the way home. Traffic on the road was also heavy, and Skagway is full of Yukoners taking time off. We will both probably encounter heavy traffic on tour tomorrow as they all head back north. So, again, probably no animal sightings.
Everything that gets green is green. Flowers are outrageous, and the fireweed is just starting, so it will get even better. The lakes are at peak levels and the greens and blues in the water are really pretty. Today, visibility was unlimited, so a good day to be at altitude.
