We stopped at Kirkman Creek for bread. There is a sign on the river in the middle of nowhere and after a few Ks more you come to a landing. Going up the bank you find a beautiful little home with a lawn and garden set about 100 yards back from the river. This establishment is run by Linda Taylor. She sells bread and cookies and meals and coffee and has a cabin and camp sites for rent. Linda is a cheerful soul who raised a family here. Now she just spends summers here with her grand kids and a pack of friendly dogs. She has a sign on the landing that says "The dogs are friendly and the coffee is hot!" in German. This tickled Werner.
Proceeded past the influx of the White river. Here the Yukon changes from green to brown from the silt. Went through a riffle here and shipped some water.
Came to a nice looking beach and landed early. Here we had to build a tent against the sun as it is broiling on this gravel beach.
