We’ve gone between Haines and Haines Junction three times, and always been intrigued by Million Dollar Falls. On the way back home, we enjoyed a stop at Haines Junction (it was Canada Day, so we got cake and flags at the Yukon\/National Park visitor center). We ate and (of course) biked, then went down to find more biking paths. We tried Mush Lake Road<\/a> (a creek had recently washed out and put lots of rocks on the 4WD road so it wasn’t very bikable), then hiked a bit of the St. Elias Lake trail<\/a> (very nice!). <\/p>\n

We went on and camped at Million Dollar Falls–we loved it!! We couldn’t believe we hadn’t stopped here before. It was better than we imagined, and, being a Yukon Park, free firewood from the wood hut! There weren’t many people at all camping, a fantastic series of falls–and it was great biking, along with a good playground.<\/p>\n

And some wood chopping (for the smores!). For the best effect, go between these two pictures really quickly.<\/p>\n
