Lawrence Adventures : June 8 2018

Update on the roads: The Tok Cutoff to Glennallen was in really really bad shape. We were running maybe 15 to 20 MPH most of the time. Once we turned off toward Palmer in Glennallen it got much better.

We got to our campground in Wasilla pretty early and set up camp. We were a little put off as they decided to seed between the sites and have roped the entire site off until June 20th. With our slides out, we have less then 12 inches to walk around. We have set up chairs in front of the site so we can at least sit outside.

We were to move anyway on the 19th, so we decided to go up to Denali for three days leaving on the 18th. When we return for our last week, the site should be open.

On the 7th, we drove as far as we could up Hatcher Pass which put us at the Independence Mine. The rest of the pass is closed to Willow until the 4th of July. There was quite a bit of snow still. The views were awesome.

We had lunch about halfway down where it was a little warmer.

After lunch we drove to the Thunderbird waterfall between Wasilla and Anchorage.

Unfortunately, we got the results back from the Whitehorse Veterinarian. Mallory does have a very bad bacteria that is resistant to antibiotics. Today, we are headed back a Vet in Palmer (third Vet so far). We hope to get a stronger antibiotic that will knock it out permanently.
