August 11th Stone Sheep on Stone Mountain






Aug 9th Laird Hot Springs

This is the Apha Pool the Beta Pool was closed due to bear season. Also the composting toilet was not functional so nothing at the pools. It was nice to see nice new decking and change-rooms since the last time we had visited.

July 31st - Aug 2 Dempster Highway - Tombstone - Arctic Circle



We camped at Tombstone Yukon Park (in fact we left our 5th wheel there and drove to the Arctic Circle 300 km more each way)



Because of the distance involved we stayed over at the Eagle Plains Hotel. We had considered possibly carrying on to Inuvik but the weather and road condition was not quite good enough, Oh well another trip.
