It was exactly two weeks ago today that our Dempster adventure came to an abrupt halt. Heavy rain and surging river waters snapped the Peel River ferry’s cables, leaving it out of service for seven days and sending us back the way we’d come.
So, we waited it out in Alaska… and came back to finish what we started ☺️
