5-8-2013: Another delightfully sunny bright crisp morning. Inside temp 44 this morning, but with sun (an a bit of heat first) quickly warms inside. Left Whitehorse heading north toward Tok. Below picture – the Yukon River just before Whitehorse.
Today’s wild life – many swans a swimming, ducks paddling in thawed ponds and a herd of mtn sheep. The many groups of sheep were easy to spot on a south facing snowless slope.
Again one beautiful ridge of mtns after another.
Haines Junction has a new beautiful visitor center…. A quilt of the local history was appliqued on an old army blanket. Enjoyable stop.
More gorgeous mtn views as we travel Yukon Hwy #1 – the Alaska Hwy
Traveled 180 miles (~200 to Tok) – will enjoy parking – relaxing – enjoying the views for the day along the Kluane River – front view!
Rear view Kluane River – Day time temps low 60’s. DC 1076.6 mm
