Whitehorse, Yukon

So we left our tent in the woods at the farm and booked an airb&b in Whitehorse for a Saturday and Monday. On Sunday we would travel back to the farm for our group farewell of Sow's ear and one more night in the tent. Whitehorse is situated on a very fast part of the Yukon river and is the biggest town in the Yukon - 32,000 or so people live in the Yukon and 27,000 of those are in Whitehorse! It's a lovely town with quite a lot going on given how remote it is relatively. We visited the Beringia museum which was fascinating (although I'd give the transport museum a miss..), the Canada Games centre which has an AMAZING pool, plenty of lakes around the town which are beautiful to swim in and even played piano at the salmon run thanks to one of Cory and Jodi's friends who's installed public pianos!
We ended our visit on a high with two great leaving meals, one at the farm and another at the Rib and Salmon in town to say goodbye to Gary and his wife Bev. We're sorry to have to leave the Yukon!Read more
