From Whitehorse to Dawson Creek, BC June 24, 2013, 6:45 PM


Made it to Dawson Creek, BC. , the beginning of the AK Hway. 
822 miles since last memo.


Rested at Lairds Hot Spring.



Lots of wildlife,


to look at


Many newborns.



Is this one still looks wet!

Saw three groups,  11 Stone Sheep total.

with 2 babies.
One wanted to nurse in middle of road.

But, Mom climbed rocks and then continued  nursing.



Meanwhile, the older ones shed their winter fur

and 'checked us out" for safety.

 (No these are NOT goats, they are Stone Sheep, more about that on another day)

Unfortunately, we are having to cut our "Retirement Trip" short. 
Sick family member. Have to go straight home. What a bummer.

And, still 680 miles to the US border.
