are at our prettiest campground yet, right on the bank of Lake Kluane.  We are surrounded by the National Park and the views are spectacular!  For me, Haines Junction provided the best scenery by far.  The town lies in a valley surrounded by snow peaked mountains.  Picture don't do it justice so you just have to enjoy the moment.  While biking, Russ and I were saying how lucky we are to be biking this beautiful area.  You go slow enough to just stare off into the peaks and take it all in.  You don't get that in a car.  A sign says here that we are in the highest concentration of grizzly bears in North Amaerica.  The park ranger said today that she saw 4 just a few days ago. Jane thinks she saw one today running along the road.  We started the day with clouds and overcast but it has ended up being sunny and warm.
