This is the view entering into Teslin, Yukon. After 480 miles and impending twilight, we were happy to be done for the day.

Being too early to stop, we decided to continue onto Teslin where we planned to stay the night. Above is a picture I took (at about 85 mph) of the perfect weather, constant trees/hills, and lonely road we had mostly to ourselves. The road inbetween Watson Lake and Teslin is very well maintained, allowing us to go 120 mph for long stretches at a time. Felt great, as well as getting us closer to beers and bed that much sooner.

Mid-afternoon on Day 4, we rolled into Watson Lake. This was our first town in the Yukon Territory, and I think where Highway 97 changes back into Highway 1. The ride up from Fort Nelson had been incredible. More wildlife, more rivers, more mountains, more trees, etc etc.

The "Sign Forest" in Watson Lake was started by a homesick Army boy working on the AlCan during WWII (http://www.yukoninfo.com/watson/signpostforest.htm). People have been adding their signs ever since. (Zooming in you can see the sign for Godfrey, Illinois...where I spent many happy childhood days at my Uncle Bill's/Aunt Nina's house).
