News from Hay River, Northwest Territories

I haven't blogged in a while.
I am in Hay River, by Great Slave Lake.

Anyway. Here are some photos taken on the road from Dawson to Hay River (Via the Klondike Highway, The Alaska Highway, the Liard Trail and then the MacKenzie Highway.

One of the places where I camped, a wonderfully peaceful place.

On the way to Carcross

One of many buffalos on the Alaska Highway

Totems in front of the Teslin Tlingit Heritage Center. You'll notice how very Haid-like they are.

I guess it doesn't show but it was meant to be a shot for the geologists in the crowd as it is Folded Mountain and indeed it sows nice folds in real life.

Just cool, naturally occurring detail on a rock. The geologists in the crowd should appreciate this one.

I went hiking by Summit Lake. What a wonderful spot that is. I recommend stopping and hiking around.



Fireweed by the side of the road

Chipmunk eating dandelion head

Young moose

Dusty Liard Trail...though not any dustier that any other gravel roads in the area

Another buffalo, from another herd, this one on the Liard Trail

Saskatoon berries in Fort Liard

The MacKenzie Highway

Double rainbow and sunset at 11:30pm. The second one is faint in photo but it was really nice, especially with the sunset.


River at Sambaa Deh Falls

A fun detail in a log.
