Sept. 29th Drive to Carcross

Sun and fog early morning

Sunrise is after 8 a.m. and since we were on the road shortly after 8 we got the early morning sun shining through the fog. It was -9 this morning so the fog stayed until 10. We are heading south and the bright yellow aspen trees have returned to the landscape. Carcross is in the Southern Lake District which is very mountainous. Carcross has been around since the Gold rush of 1898 and is on a narrow gauge rail line from Skagway, Alaska to Whitehorse, Yukon. We took a leisurely walk through the town which is pretty small but has some interesting buildings.
