day two | palmer to beaver creek

We woke up well rested and enjoyed breakfast burritos at Vagabond Blues Cafe.

Afterwards, our drive began with large raindrops and cloudy skies. We stopped by the Matanuska Glacier overlook.

Our journey took us on the curvy switchbacks to Glennallen for petrol and continued onto Tok. Skies cleared up & the sun came out. Roads offered a variety of potholes and frost heaves.

There was a 17 mile stretch of new tarmac.

93 miles later we crossed the border into Canada.

We met our first Canadian resident.

After driving a total of 386 miles, we arrived in historical Beaver Creek. We forgot about the one hour time zone change until we were trying to find a place to sleep for the night. 1202 Motor Inn & Buckshot Betty’s had no vacancy so we stayed at Ida’s.
