The next day we headed north to the Glacial National Park. Just outside the park we stopped for a break in the local gas station. After a healthy salad for me and a cheese burger for Taz we got chatting about the roads ahead. In no time at all the locals cleared up our questions. The roads were closed due to heavy snowfall... Doh!
So we opted to head straight to the nearest border which happened to be Eurekakakakakaka. The terrain had started to change into more alpine style.. Pine trees and grass. Rolling into Eureka we noticed the Canadian flags next to the American ones, a popular destination for Canadians to come shopping. A cheap Motel and we got ready for the Border Crossing the next morning. Passports bike documents etc.
8 am We awoke to a rainy day, we donned our waterproofs and headed the six miles to the border. Crossing over this border was a little worrying for us as we have not tried a crossing whilst here other than coming into the country.. On Arrival we asked to turn the bikes off, the office was pleasant and straight away said " your going to Alaska" shocked i agreed and he said he another couple from Mexico on similar bikes going the same place. cooooll He aked us the usual question our jobs? any thing we are leaving in Canada? and then stamped the passports and waved us on... easy....
Off into Canada..
