Dempster

First day on the Dempster and we are blessed with blue skies and fluffy white clouds. So far the road is in great shape as we expected, at least as far as Tombstone park where we stopped for theもっと詳しく
Tombstone Park
2022年6月7日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 10 °C
The weather has turned a bit colder and wetter. We planned to do a hike with Renée before she gets back on the road. When we got to the trail head everything was clouded in so there was not muchもっと詳しく
Goldensides

This hike gets you up high enough to see the mountain Tombstone Park is famous for. The sky was moderately cooperative so we did manage to get a glimpse of the famous mountain range.

Slow Going
2022年6月8日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 5 °C
Our goal is simply the next campground up the highway. It took all day, there was so much to see we kept stopping every 2 kms. Probably would have been better off doing this portion on a bike.もっと詳しく
Snow and Cold
2022年6月9日, カナダ ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C
Woke up to snow, not a lot but it was a sign of how the weather was changing. Today we are staying put to let Renée get ahead of us. We explored around the campground (Engineer Creek).

Tracking the Majestic Moose
2022年6月10日, カナダ ⋅ ☁️ 5 °C
We had been on the trail to see our first moose. We finally spotted a large butt meandering into the bush, definitely a moose. Not 2km later we saw the one in the video.
PS: Renée had the exactもっと詳しく
Mud

Before we left camp we talked to some more cyclists going north. That makes 7 cyclists on the highway that we know of. Renée of course, her two riding buddies Brent & Tim, Zack (way ahead), and nowもっと詳しく
Eagle Plains
2022年6月10日, カナダ ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C
Eagle Plains as it used to be called, now Eagle Plain Lodge. Yukoners just call it Eagle because it changes names so often (they are thinking of officially changing it back to Eagle Plains).

Arctic Circle
2022年6月12日, カナダ ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C
We’ve had close to 24 hours of daylight for most of the trip. Very soon the sun won’t set at all. Perfect for a solar powered trailer.
It was windy and cold so we didn’t stick around long.
Rock River
2022年6月12日, カナダ ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C
This campground certainly lives up to it’s name. The rocks on the sand bars are fascinating. Lots of mosquitoes though, more than we have encountered anywhere else. They are manageable give theもっと詳しく
Rest Day
2022年6月13日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 14 °C
Hanging out at camp. Drying out stuff, some reorganizing, etc.
Built a friend for my buddy and so did Renée. Got to admit my arms are a little sore after playing Rock Jenga all afternoon.
Great Day for a Bike Ride
2022年6月14日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
Our first full sun day, and a big pass to get over. Hoping to make the 95km trek to the Peel River ferry. Couldn’t have asked for better conditions.
Ridge Hike
2022年6月14日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C
Such a beautiful day we wanted to get out and walk a bit. This ridge right at the Yukon/NWT border beckoned.
It looked like an easy walk at first, but turned out to be longer and steeper than weもっと詳しく
Peel River
2022年6月15日, カナダ ⋅ ☀️ 8 °C
All afternoon people coming from the north had been stopping to let us know that the Peel River ferry was not running (again). Undeterred our cyclists ventured on. Sure enough when we got there it wasもっと詳しく
Delayed
2022年6月16日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
With the ferry not running because of high water, and Renée already on the other side, we were stuck waiting. We back tracked to a gravel pit about 6km away.
There we met some interesting people:もっと詳しく
Land of the Midnight Sun
2022年6月17日, カナダ ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C
We are definitely getting 24 hours of sun. We’ve had 24 hours of daylight for a while now, but now the sun never sets. It stays completely above the horizon. This picture was taken just as it wasもっと詳しく
Campbell Lake

We stumbled upon this hike at Campbell Lake. It goes along the cliffs above the lake. This at the beginning of the MacKenzie delta. A very nice little hike.

End of the Road
2022年6月18日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 5 °C
Last stretch of about 90kms to Tuktoyaktuk and the Arctic Ocean. Stopped to look at the Pingos. Basically rouge bubbles of ice pushed up by permafrost. I believe the big one in the picture is theもっと詳しく

Expanding Family

So apparently the gestation period for inukshuks is quite short. In the 7 days we were gone they had a baby.
They also have a new Neighbour who has a flat just down the beach.
Heading Back
2022年6月20日, カナダ ⋅ ⛅ 12 °C
The trip back was quicker, until we reached the Ogilvie mountains. On our way up this mountain range was sopped in with rain. Although the weather wasn’t perfect we did get a chance to see what weもっと詳しく
