Die ganze Nacht hat es pausenlos geregnet bei Haines, am Morgen flaute es aber kurzfristig zu schwachem Regen ab. Bis zur Bruecke ueber den White River musste ich wegen des Regens und seinen tief haengenden Wolken eine (vermutlich) sehr spektakulaere Kulisse von Bergen des Kluane Ranges verpasst haben, als ich bei der Bruecke durch einen Sonnenstrahl ermahnt wurde "bald hast du mich!". Tatsaechlich: Nach einem ganz heftigen Regenfall kam die Sonne hervor.
Bei wunderbarem Wetter schliesslich fuhr ich bis zur Grenze zu den USA mit Alaska. Absolut Null Problemo mit Aus- / Einreise und: Es herrschen Sommerliche Temperaturen!! Ich finde bei Lakeview Campground eine der wenigen gratis Campground bei schoenem See und keinen Moskitos aber mit viel Sonnenschein! Welcome to Alaksa.

XXXXX

The entire night it was raining at Haines but it changed to slightly rain in the morning. It wasn't untill I crossed the White River when I missed (obviously) a spectacular scenery along the Kluane Ranges due to the rain and its low hanging clowds, when I was called by a sunshine at that bridge telling me "soon you'll have me". And in fact: After one more heavy rainfall the sun came back.
At fine wheather I finally drove to the border to the USA with Alaska. Absolutely no problem with the Customs- and Passport Control but: There is a wonderful weather with warm temperatures! I ended up at one of the view free Campgrounds at Lakeview Campground attached to a lovely lake and no mosquitoes but much of sunshine! Welcome to Alaska.
