Mosquitoes! I swear they seem to enjoy biting me and leave my mom alone. \u00a0Thankfully the kids seem to have avoided being bitten. \u00a0I guess I put bug spray on them better than myself. \u00a0Anyhoo, let me catch you up on what we have been doing. \u00a0We have 3 more campgrounds that we have visited.<\/p>\n

\"Welcome<\/a>

Welcome to the Yukon!<\/p><\/div>\n

June 30 – The first one is Nugget City outside of Watson Lake, YT and we do not have plans to return. \u00a0This is because I think it’s horrible to charge $10 for 5 hours of wifi that you can only get by the office while you are getting eaten by mosquitoes. \u00a0The bathrooms were great with very hot showers ($1 for 2.5 minutes) \u00a0and the laundry room was clean (we didn’t use them though). \u00a0The person who checked us in was very friendly, our water & electric only site was easy to get into and was level. \u00a0We even had a few trees. \u00a0There is some noise from the busy road it’s off of, but with a\/c I didn’t notice it while sleeping. \u00a0Fuel was available and the restaurant was excellent. \u00a0The cook even came out and joked with my kids about ketchup being a vegetable. \u00a0It’s ok for an overnight but next time we will try the Downtown RV Park. \u00a0No pictures of the campground as we completely forgot to take one.<\/p>\n

\"At<\/a>

At a downtown gift store<\/p><\/div>\n

July 1 – We originally were going to be at Nugget City for two days but only stayed one. \u00a0We headed to Whitehorse without reservations and our top two choices of campgrounds were full. \u00a0Instead we stayed at Mountain Ridge Motel & RV Park. \u00a0We stayed here two days as we still hadn’t gotten to our laundry. \u00a0You are pretty much parked in the gravel lot of the hotel. \u00a0I was able to easily back into my site which was very level . \u00a0The first site we were going to use would have required us to run our full hookups to the other side of our rig. \u00a0Our second site was much easier with everything on the driver side. \u00a0The staff were very friendly and we would stay here again.<\/p>\n

\"Bears,<\/a>

Bears, Oh my!<\/p><\/div>\n

July 3 – Next up we headed to Destruction Bay, YT. \u00a0We were very excited to see our first grizzly. \u00a0Then we drove a mile down the road and saw our second one. \u00a0An hour later and we saw another one. \u00a0Later on we drove to Destruction Bay Lodge and when we drove past the campground we decided to keep going. \u00a0We wanted something more than just a gravel lot. \u00a0We ended up in White River, YT and stayed at Discovery Yukon. \u00a0We will definitely return. \u00a0We had 30 amp full hook ups, on our graveled level site. \u00a0We loved the nightly campfire where you can chat with your neighbors while your roast marshmallows. \u00a0They usually drive you around on one of the military vehicles they have there (Brian loved seeing those). We all look forward to staying here on our return trip from Alaska.<\/p>\n
