  8. We've made it to Whitehorse after a long drive. Started with very heavy fog this morning and a stretch of highway with 3 dead buffalo and a dead small black bear that had all been recently hit. Not a great way to start the day. It cleared up but remained windy most of the day. The highlight was the Sign Forest at Watson Lake. #Alaska #Canada #Yukon #AlaskaHighway
