Just got back from an epic overlanding adventure up the "Top of the World" highway all the way to Dawson City, Canada (Yukon). Really cool little trip through Chicken Alaska and a ride across the Yukon River on a ferry which took us right into the downtown of Dawson City. Visited Diamond Tooth Gerdies where we watched a can-can girl show and got some cheap old-time gambling in. Drank a shot of Yukon Jack Whiskey with a human toe in it and experienced some of the gold mining town buildings. Really good trip if you are looking for something that will check off the bucket list.

Don't have the photos just yet but will post them when i get them.

Sir, “Drank a shot of Yukon Jack Whiskey with a human toe in it” could use a little bit of context.

Have you done it Stu?

i wore the toe like a mustache cuz it got stuck in the bottom of the glass and took me some time to knock it down

Haven't been there but damn wish I was!

Might be easier for me to swallow the toe than a whole glass of Yukon Jack tho. That's some sugared-up stuff. My Old Forrester 100 would be jealous.

My father used to eat pickled pigs' knuckles...I kid you not.

I heard that Dawson's Bar used to serve their special fries with that drink.  But they only had 10 pota(toes).

Did you catch the toe in your mouth?  If so, you nailed it!

they wouldn't let us open our mouths. only the lips were allowed to touch it since there has been 2x people who ate the damned things in the past. pretty disgusting
