It poured all night long at Takhini Hot Springs. We all stayed in bed late, because why not? After all, it might stop raining, right? No such luck. Instead we packed up all our gear in the rain! We headed to the nearest café to have breakfast. Then in the pouring rain we headed back to Whitehorse to hit Walmart and Canadian Tire (which is a huge sporting goods store). We also finally (!!) connected with the BMW shop in Fairbanks. They have the parts we need and will hold them for us. This means no side trips for us until we get those parts.
We then went back north in the pouring rain up Hwy 2 to Carmacks. By that time the rain had stopped so we had ice cream for lunch. Wayne reported the temperatures ranging from 42-70 once the sun came out.
We camped at another Yukon Campground at Tatchun Creek.
We again got the pavillion

Lyon's tent fits so nicely up on the table
Bob, Cindy, Dave and Ken enjoy the camp fire. Besides the pavillion, Yukon campgrounds all have free wood! What a deal!
There was a beaver dam just up stream, and the beaver came out to gather grass from across the creek from us. Very cool!
Critter count: 1 beaver
