Here is one more of my multi-photo panoramas. This mountain range was beyond a long bridge I was approaching. I took a “conventional” single-shot panorama photo with my iPhone and will post it first to show the entirety of the range. It will be followed by a bunch of photos, taken with my iPhone, panning from left to right. The mountains were much closer than they appear in the single shot, one reason I don’t take that many of that type of photo as they end up being too small to see much detail when posted. I tried crossing the bridge to get even closer but then the low pine trees were blocking part of the mountains, so I came back to this end of the bridge.

Here are the individual photos:

I continued driving towards Tok and saw these two sets of mountains ahead of me, further down the road.

As I was approaching town I saw this entrance to a touristy area next to the road, but it was closed for the season.

I finally arrived in Tok. I was staying in a different place than I did when I arrived in Alaska. This was my little cabin. I was very modern inside, and I wish it had been available on Airbnb when I arrived in Tok a few weeks ago.

After getting my stuff for the night moved in from the car I decided to treat myself to a steak dinner at one of the few restaurants in town.

This will not be my last night in Alaska. After crossing the border into Canada tomorrow I will drive south in the western part of the Yukon Territory to the town of Haines Junction. The next day I will drive further south and cross into the panhandle of Alaska to go to the coastal town of Haines, and then I will take a ferry to another coastal Alaska town – Skagway.

After stopping to take photos of the mountain range west of the highway I continued on to Delta Junction. I had passed through here previously but today I will turn left onto Hwy 2 to head back to Tok. I had stopped in Tok on my first night in Alaska and will be staying there again before I exit the “mainland” part of the state and go back into the Yukon Territory.

I had posted some photos from Delta Junction previously but here are two I had not taken. These will back up the extremely low overnight temperatures I have seen for Fairbanks on my weather app.

After turning left on Hwy 2 I crossed a bridge over a wide river and saw this mountain range on my right. I walked out onto the bridge and took this series of photos with my iPhone camera, as these mountains were much closer. These photos are of the mountains looking from left to right. Once again, you will see some overlap in the photos.
