Late morning we set out for Delta Junction which which is technically the end of the Alaska Highway which leads all the way to Dawson City. Along the way we stopped at Rika’s Roadhouse which was such a fun stop! We’ve found that so many museums, visitor centers, and other attractions are completely closed due to the pandemic but Rika’s was thankfully open!
It is a State Historical recreation site located on the Tanana River. The grounds are beautiful, there is a lot history to learn about, and all the historical buildings plus the cafe were open. The lady inside the cafe said that Rika’s was down about 500 visitors a week.
After that stop we drove a few miles further to Clearwater River Campground where we spent the rest of the day riding bikes, picking wild strawberries, and kayaking in the freezing crystal clear river!
