August 13,2019 Whitehorse YT to Dawson Creek B.C.

Well we are back where we started our journey on the Alaska-Canada Highway. I need to bring you up to date as we have had limited cell and wifi service until now. We stayed an extra day in Whitehorse so we could play their municipal golf course. It was very well maintained. It was only a 9 hole but because of all the hills and water quite challenging. My chipping lessons really paid off on this course! After Whitehorse we landed in a little spot in the road called Toad River. A nice little campground with a beaver dam and Trumpeter swans. We really hadn’t seen very many animals until we left Toad River and then the mother load until Fort Nelson. On a sad note for my American friends you might not have been following, but I am sure my Canadian were. A young couple ( She was from North Carolina & he was from Australia )was murdered along with a B.C. Professor on the Al-Can highway near Muncho Lake. This was just after we passed through on our way to Alaska. There is a small memorial along side the road where the couple was murdered. A vivid and horrible reminder that life is short and precious. The murderers were found dead from suicide in Manitoba. So I know that the people of Canada and especially the community where the boys were found are resting easier now.

Now to some pictures.

Nice little par 3 from the black tees

Same par 3 from the white tees. From the red you actually had to play hook to get the ball on the green

Interesting

Porcupine

I think a male Tanager?

He didn’t seem to care that B&B were barking at him and the rest of the herd.

Can you see his horn buds?

This little guy was hiding:-)

All I ever get are butt shots..so this is the best butt shot! Of Mountain Sheep

Like how the mountains and clouds reflect in the water.

Beaver!

Fox

Believe it or not our 1st deer on the Al-Can.
