After a few days of calm or no wind, I guess it was only a matter of time before I returned to my username. Appropriately I get hit with nasty headwinds along the Columbia River & climbing up out of the river valley east of Portland! 😭🤣🌬️🚵🏼‍♂️

Dear #WashingtonStateParks: if you are going to pull this shit you need to put the info on the website, which says the campground is year round and says NOTHING about it being closed.
parks.wa.gov/find-parks/s...

If I weren't resourceful, I'd be stranded.🤬

Still, it definitely added a layer of fatigue to my ride from Bellingham to Whidbey Island today. Of course, it didn't help that Mapy decided to send me up every 10% grade it could on Whidbey Island. 😵

Dear chodes who try to roll coal on me: how much diesel are you burning w/ your pathetic little smoke clouds? How much extra is that costing you these days, dumbass?😂

I'm sorry not sorry you feel so threatened by me demonstrating more freedom in my #BicycleTravel than you will EVER experience.🙄🖕🏼

And that's so long to #Yukon.👋😎
(or so I thought at the time when I first entered Alaska 😅)

For the most part, I really enjoyed cycling through Canada. I especially love the frequent roadside litter bins! That's something I will sorely miss!

Next catch up 🧵 is all Alaska.

Crossing the Donjek River was the first time I saw a really wide, pretty fast moving river that looks almost like flowing mud or clay. I'm glad my water was topped up so I didn't have to stress my water filter trying to pull water from this.😅

The muddyness of the water makes it look like wrinkled silk.

After Kluane Lake, the Alaska Highway road conditions got pretty bad, with several long unpaved stretches between there & Beaver Creek. But the scenery was still nice. And seeing glaciers is still a novelty to me. Here's the Kluane Glacier in the distance.

I didn't take any photos going up the western shore of the lake. I was trying to make good time to Destruction Bay for my last resupply before Beaver Creek. Just after turning north, there was a road sign saying "High Sheep Activity", but I didn't see a single wild sheep.🤷‍♂️😅

The descent to Kluane Lake was quite pretty. I love seeing the millions and millions of years shown by rock layers on huge mountains. ⛰️🗻⛰️🗻⛰️🚵‍♂️

Haines Junction was at the bottom of a valley, and it was a long gradual climb getting back out, but Yukon is very pretty.

Trying to Catch Up 🧵, Haines Junction to AlCan Border.

My last big thread left off with nice smelling alfalfa fields outside of Haines Junction, Yukon. From there, I continued on the Alaska Highway, with some nice mountain views along the way.

I'm on a boat. I'M ON A BOAT!😎👍🏼

I'll be in Bellingham, WA in a few days. In the meantime, there's WiFi on the ship, so I'll post my catch up threads while underway. I PROMISE.😅

Catch up threads still coming (maybe tomorrow while I hunker through some rain🤔) but leaves are really starting to change along the #Alaska Highway! Very pretty on a rare (lately) sunny day!

Bonus: a moose I saw on the highway yesterday.🫎
