• Whitehorse, Yukon Territory

    20 augustus 2017, Canada ⋅ ⛅ 9 °C

    On the banks of the Yukon River, Whitehorse is the capital of the Yukon and home to 28,000 people. It's by far the largest population centre in the territory. Most people who work here are in education, government, tourism or mining.

    Not much of a chance to look around so took some shots from the hotel. The town is set down in the river valley along the shores of the Yukon River. All the power for the Yukon is generated from the hydro station just outside town; a small unobtrusive building which impacts little on the surroundings. Had to take the photo of the traffic lights.....first, we have seen since leaving Anchorage.
