This photo is of the famous passage on the Yukon River, formed by knobs of rock called congomerate, which the steamers had to navigate on their way from Whitehorse to Dawson City. It is amazing to see it looking the same as it did 110 years ago, from historical pictures of paddle wheelers threading those channels. The safest is the once closest to our side of the river and not really seen in the picture. My grandfather and great-grandfather went through there... it boggles the mind!
Pigs is traveling well, although he didn't want to come out from under the covers this morning, it was a chilly 45 inside the rig! Great mornings for hot cereal and hot chocolate!
We walk almost every morning with Jan & Walt... sometimes it's pretty brisk! I guess it will warm up later in the season.
Saw a fox yesterday... she'd been out hunting and had caught a ground squirrel.
Incredible scenery, to say the least.
