This Rustic River Camp In Alaska Has The Most Amazing Food
The mighty Yukon River is the longest river in both Alaska and the Yukon in Canada. In fact, the Canadian province is named after the waterway. The Yukon was a major transportation waterway before the advent of small airplanes, especially during the Gold Rush in the early 1900’s. And travelers along the river have always needed a place to stop and rest. The Yukon River Camp holds this spot for both travelers on the river and the Dalton Highway in northern Alaska. The friendly folks and delicious cuisine are certainly an oasis in the vast, open tundra.
Yukon River Camp Cafe is at Mile 56 Dalton Hwy, Yukon River Crossing.
The Dalton Highway stretches out to the extreme north of Alaska. The Yukon River is a major fixture of the region, flowing from BC to the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta in Western Alaska.
The E. L. Patton Yukon River Bridge is a noted landmark on the Dalton Highway. At 2000 feet long, it is the only bridge that crosses the Yukon River in Alaska.
Stop by this utilitarian cafe for a delicious meal in the middle of nowhere. You are sure to agree that, although rustic, the restaurant is surprisingly delicious.
