Whitehorse


In Whitehorse we staed at the High Country RV Park. Very nice with trees and level and a cute little store. the first night we went to see the Frantic Follies. It was a mixture of can-can , poetry, opera, and lots of fun. We all enjoyed it.

the next day we visited the fish ladder but the salmon are still two weeks away and were not utilizing it. In the afternoon we took the boat along 2 mile canyon on the Youkon River. In the evening we went to explore the hanging bridge that went over te canyon and walk along the paths. John and Doc were a littlel more adventurous than I on there hiking paths. The following day we toured the Mutluk Kennels. Such a fascinating place. Both Frank Turner, a musher in both the Idierdod and more recently the Yukon Quest and his wife, are two of the most facinatng people we have ever met. We stayed for there dinner feast of buffalo caribo and elk.. What a great day and evening.
