Welcome to the photo blog for David and Janet Elmore. You can find pages full of photos from our trips with Vanessa or Savanna (our van-based RV) and pages that are a record of events with lots of photos. Many of our travel photos are connected to a map at the bottom of our posts so you can see where we went and can look for photos at specific places.

Below is a list of recent posts.

Dawson City II

Sun 20-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

We allowed the weather to change our plans for today. It had rained overnight and continued on into the day, so we decided to hang around Dawson City rather than tackle gravel/dirt roads in the rain. We had a...

Dawson City I

Sat 19-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

We started our morning with a mile or so hike up one of the tundra-covered hills nearby. The tundra was even softer and squishier than that we had walked on in Denali NP. After a scramble up a granite and...

Top of the World

Fri 18-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

Our route took us down the Richardson and Alaska Highways to Tok, up the Taylor Highway to Chicken, then we joined the Top of the World Highway at the Eagle turnoff. The road along the Richardson was an easy...

After getting approval from Sprinter, the Trailercraft technician started to check every connection in the van. After three hours the service manager came out and said they had found one suspect connection...

Trailercraft II

Wed 16-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

It’s still raining.  We did a bit of shopping and had a delightful conversation with Claude, a Sportsmobile forum enthusiast from Switzerland.  He has a Ford van that he outfitted himself and...

Fairbanks III

Mon 14-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

Another day of heavy rain and the resulting mud. For a place that is supposed to be a near-desert, this one sure is getting a lot of rain. Again there was little to see and photograph. We left Five Mile Camp...

Dalton Highway III

Sun 13-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

We headed south under light rain that turned often to heavy rain. At times we were lucky to see sun and even a rainbow, but mostly it was rain and more rain. The good news was that the clouds were generally...

After a long night of worrying, Janet decided that she and Vanessa were not going to make it to the Arctic Ocean. It was still pouring rain so there was nothing for her to see out the windows and Vanessa is...

Dalton Highway I

Fri 11-Jul-2014 Alaska, Travel |

In rain and mist we continued north on the Dalton Highway. The road surface varied from good gravel to potholed and rough gravel and good paved to broken and potholed paved. The advantage of the rain was that...
