We were all out of the park in Skagway by 8am.  Each rig made their way back up to Carcross, on their own, where we were supposed to meet Spike at 11am.  Everyone was early, so we checked out the Visitors Center, General Store, little shops and of course the bakery.  When Spike arrived we had about ½ hour to continue checking things out and then it was off to Caribou Crossing for a BBQ Chicken lunch and Wildlife Gallery.  We got to meet Michelle Phillips, Iditarod Musher and her dogs.  She had about 40 of her dogs there and 60 more at her home.  Her dogs train there in the summer.  They give dog sled rides to people out through their trails in the woods.  There was a number of our group that got a ride, including Gay & I.  

 We had to go on ahead of the group to get the campground ready for our caravan.  We took time to stop at Emerald Lake to take a few pictures.  It is such a beautiful lake.

 It took no time at all to get everyone all settled in the campground and we were off for the city tour with Spike.  He pointed out all the great places to shop and eat.

 We needed to make a run for groceries, so we took three ladies from our group to the Canadian Super Store.  As soon as we returned we had a quick dinner of leftovers and then a loop around our park and call it quits for the night.
