Checked out of the Haines-Hitch-Up at 9 a.m. We had some time to kill before the State Ferry, so we drove north of town to a glacier fed lake called Mud Lake because of all the glacier silt. We drove to the ferry, checked in and got into the loading queue.
I had to back the Scamp down the loading ramp and then 90-degree turn inside the ship. A ferryman walked me down and guided me so it was not as difficult as it sounds. Simba decided to stay in the trailer. We had lunch on the ferry of turkey noodle soup, which was delicious. We docked in Skagway at 1:45 p.m. and then drove up the highway to Carcross and then took the cutoff to Jakes Corners on the Alaskan Highway. We drove until 8:30 p.m. and dry camped at the intersection of the Cassiar Highway and the Alcan.310 miles today 6616 total
