Dawson City to Haines Junction - Tuesday August 2 – Friday 5.
Four days of amazing travelling through some of the most stunning scenery. Snow capped mountains further than the eyes could see; Endangered wildlife (Caribou and trumpeter swans); water in every shape, size and form; dirt, gravelled, potholed, frost heaved and bitumen roads and endless picture postcard views.
40 Mile Caribou |
View from the "Top of the World" highway. |
I hope the residents enjoy each others company! |
We gave a tick (check) to Tok as a place to stop! |
Hanneke looking for a Tim Hortons. |
One of the many beautiful lake views. |
Who couldn't help but admire the view! |
Kluane Lake - The Yukon's longest lake. |
More snow capped mountains! |
Rain!!!! Now we know why North Americans use motorhomes when they go camping. |
And another reason! |
And even more snow capped mountains. |
And the sun finally sets - 11.30 pm. |
And to top it all off we saw our first Moose. A mother and calf at the side of the road. Unfortunately the noise of our hole riddled muffler scared these huge animals so Mum went back for baby and took her a safer route.
Why did the Moose cross the road? |
