On Tuesday, August 6th, day 6 of my White Pass RV-based hiking trip, I had a plan to hike to the canyons up Summit Creek. But I started the day off early by driving the Tracker south on the South Klondike Highway at 06:30 to do some low-light shooting...

Exploring a bit of the Fraser Canyon in depth was the order of Day 9 – Friday, May 4th. We only put 44 km on the RV, the Tracker got unhooked 4 times for exploring, and some nice surprises were served up in the way of long-abandoned stretches of...

Day 6 (May 1st) was a busy day photographically – after editing, there are 206 photos in the day’s folder. This post takes us the final 15 km or so to our overnight spot across the highway from the abandoned Kanaka Bar Lodge. The first stop was only a...

When Day 14 began (Saturday, May 7th), I knew that my hopes for the day on the lower Thompson River and in the Fraser Canyon as written in my notebook were overly-ambitious. I’d have to high-grade the possibilities as the day went on. At 191 km (119 mi), the...

I always enjoy my time in Dawson Creek, and the more time I spend here, the more I like it. I never feel like I’ve seen all there is to see, and the people are consistently wonderful. Saturday, September 12th, day 4 of the trip, was our day to...

On Easter Sunday, I had taken advantage of the toast-and-cereal breakfast at the Sunshine Inn, taken this photo from the viewing deck a few feet from my room on the 3rd floor, and checked out by a few minutes after 7:00. With my next destination, Stewart, only 328 km...

The weather forecast yesterday morning was good for that day but then we’re in for a long spell of cloudy, wet days so I decided to take the motorcycle east down the Alaska Highway for a few hours. The probable destination was Teslin, 163 kilometers (101 miles) from home....

It’s now Sunday morning at 06:20, and we’re sailing northbound on calm seas past Malcolm Island near the north end of Vancouver Island. I’m on my way home, though on a roundabout route that will take 7 days. For the past couple of days the Coral Princess has been...

Cathy and I were up early yesterday to maximize our single day in San Francisco. We already wish that we had more time here – it truly is a great city, and although neither of us is “city folk”, a few days would have been great. San Francisco was...

The deck was finished on Thursday, the final cleanup was done yesterday and the crews will be heading south in a couple of days – Carcross has a beautiful new footbridge across the Nares River! You can see a large photo album of the history and progress of the...
