Great news!!

Got a call at 3pm and they were in Tok, Alaska. about another 200 miles to Fairbanks if they decide to go that far. They've seen some bears, brown and black and one Grizzly bear. Said he was huge. No pic unfortunately , Jonathan's phone was in the back of the bus and Mike tried to back up to where they saw him but he had wandered back into the woods. They are tired but in good spirits.

Forget the phone. Where is the gun!!!!

lol.. you got to have a bear tag to shoot them..and they are expensive for non residents. They did make to John's house in Fairbanks so they are getting settled in and will go check out the land that John has to see what the prospects are like.

Hi Everyone Well as you know we made it to Fairbanks! //SLAMIN//  We are at our friends house at the North Pole. They had some bad storms just before we got here. We drove though some of it. We drove though hail and rain and snow coming though the mountains of the Yukon. It was a long ride when we got to Glacier pass. It took us 14hr to go 120miles though the mountains. We stopped at a weight station to see how heavy  we are and it was 33,000 and still had 300 gallons of WVO left. we went 3500 miles on just WVO till something happened to the last 150 gallons of WVO and it got dirty from something in the tanks. we sucked the 200 and the 300 gallon tanks almost dry and picked up all the old dried up WVO that was stuck to the walls of the tanks. With all the shaking while driving must have loosened it up. So we used 3 tanks of diesel to get here and still have 3/4 of a tank left.  We didn't need to change one filter till this happened. Then we went though 15 filters in 300miles. 5 of them where for the diesel for the fuel we got in the Yukon! I'm glad we had 20 with us to start. So John my friend had a shed to hold some of his tools in the blew away from the storms so jon and I helped him put up a Quonset hut up. We are going with him today to look over some of the claims he has. He has a 200ac claim in chicken Ak that has a river but it's like the Chattahoochee. It's very deep 20 foot at the shallow end and very fast water. There's lots of gold in it just rely hard to get to. We may give it a try after I see how bad it really is. I'll try and post some more while i'm still at the north pole and hve Wi-Fi.

The scenery is amazing especially since I am looking at the concrete jungle of Atlanta.
