The haul road was in good shape but she was able to claim a trailer tire and a throttle cable however we didn't realize the cable was snapped until we arrived at the river. The mud also made the truck look like it had a custom two tone paint job.
Once we arrived at the Yukon we were pumped but that was short lived because we realized we had snapped our throttle cable. Luckily, we had a spare and were able to fix her up. Once complete, it was a 26 mile run up river. The trip revealed one of the constant struggles for a summer in Alaska...wild fires. The north side of the river was burnt however the south side had lush green grass.
Fishing was great because we brought over 30 pike to hand in one day of fishing and all fish were on top water. By the time we were done fishing you couldn't recognize any of the lures/flies because they were just flat out hammered.
