Mukluk Annies Here We Come
Our first stop was at Rancheria Falls. It was a short walk into a beautiful water falls....however the weather was getting nasty, very wet....although the trucks did get washed off.
A short drive further along brought us to the little community of Teslin on Teslin Lake, mile 804 on the Alaska highway. This town had a brief boom as a stop over on the way to the Klondike. For a short time there was a Hudson’s Bay Company Trading Post but this was short lived and closed in 1903. Teslin continued to grow with the arrival of the North West Mounted Police. Today it has a population of 450 people. The Nisutlin Bridge which brings you into Teslin is the longest span on the entire Alaska highway.
It was decided that we would take advantage of free RV parking at the infamous Mukluk Annies Salmon Bake Restaurant. In return for eating in the Restaurant you receive free parking, a free RV wash, free water and free dump. Not only that the food is delicious.....ribs and salmon, salad bar, baked potatoes, baked beans, coffee and tea and dessert all inclusive. And you get a free boat ride around the lake as well.
Oh No!! They have an all you can eat breakfast too!
