About
Looking for something specific?
almost lost the tent. Wind storm in Haines Junction, Yukon. Plenty of firewood that night. Kluane National Park - wildly beautiful. Bear watch x 3.
a salmon camp, Arctic Red River, NWT. Best meal, nicest people. Felt like we were forever crossing rivers.
Richardson Mountains, NWT. Fireweed everywhere. Enroute to Inuvik and then Tuktoyaktuk. Later…tea and bannock on the MacKenzie River. Met an RCMP officer and had lunch at Eagle Plains earlier in the day. We met again in Fort MacPherson. Visited the outpost Nursing Station.
Ogilvie Mountains, Yukon
We camped twice along the Dempster Route. Isolated. Without the company of trees. There… you’re exposed.
Trout River/Whittaker Falls, NWT enroute to Fort Simpson. No cars for miles. Bear watch.
told we’d be lucky if we saw one or two bison along the way. Then…..this.
Coming out of Fort Providence, NWT
poor car. 3 blown tires. 2 windshield cracks. mud caked everywhere. 13, 800 kms.
on the “rock” overlooking Yellowknife Bay (Great Slave Lake). One night at the Golden Nugget proved to be somewhat of an adventure. I have a scar to show for it.
heading for Yellowknife NWT. overlooking a hundred square miles of forest toward Great Slave Lake and the MacKenzie River. Bridge ends. But a steep path here leads to an ancient coral reef.
Salt Plains, Wood Buffalo National Park Northwest Territories, Canada
The trail down from the escarpment led to these deposits of salt, on a plain once covered by an ocean. Salt on my tongue and fingers was something I never expected.
