Some Pics from the river adventure......

A typical tranquil river scene, with a beaver swimming across the river. It wasn't always like this though....




The all too common afternoon thunderstorm on the brew....Canoe empty, tents erected, and ready for the down pour.



Howard's view most days.... Note how brown the river is here vs pic above!


















A curious moose as we paddle past....
















The inquisitive porcupine who in fleeing from us, escaped up this tree



First campsite at the end of Lake Lebarge. We found this useful axe, and had a great campfire!
















Imi, just having completed yet another, unassited, solo tent erection! The world record time was to come later....









Our Yukon River navigation map! (Actually a cool place mat from Carmacks Hotel Restaurant!)


An example of the natural beauty of the Yukon River.

















Imi standing at the edge of our smallest campsite island... There was just enough room for both our tents.















Five Fingers Rapids from the road on the drive back from Dawson. Nothing too serious as you can see.....




The Other side of the trip.... Non nature, but still natural, well for Howard!:

Behind the Bar counter, taking over Carmacks Hotel Pub.

















Cool Dude enjoying a well deserved meal at the rustic, Gold Panner's Restaurant, Carmacks. This was at our only stopover.










Dawson City Sin.... Better than a "Sour Toe", whisky cocktail though!
