I drove from Alaska to TX with a friend of mine last September and Lake Kluane was the part of the drive I remember the most vividly. They could have built a bridge across the lake but instead of doing that they built a road that went all the way around. The mountains were this deep purple color. The best part about that whole leg of the trip was that it was light when we started around the lake and dark by the time we got to the other side. We watched the sunset over the mountains and the moonrise over the lake. There was no light pollution at all just billions of visible stars. The lake was choppy so the combination of that and the moonlight made it look like this pale crystal fire stretching across the entire surface of the lake. I wish I had a better camera on that trip but I am glad I brought my journal because I got to write it all down. That is one drive I would sincerely do again in a heart beat. ~5000 miles of some of the most beautiful nature I've ever seen.
