I hadn’t checked the weather forecast when I drove Cathy back to Whitehorse on Sunday night, but since it’s seldom right, it was the sky when I went to bed back in the RV at Summit Creek that gave me hope for some great hiking on Monday and maybe...

The weather for our first multi-day RV outing in the White Pass hadn’t been very good, so we decided to give it another try this past weekend. I had the rig ready to go when Cathy got home from work, but we stopped at Carcross for a good dinner...

My only big hike of our 4-day White Pass staycation – climbing Summit Creek Hill – started off as a short walk to photograph flowers, but the mountain kept calling my name 🙂 Just after 2:00 pm on Friday, I decided to go for a walk in a lush...

I want to be on the road exploring all the time now. I have another 2-week trip in mind for the near future, but last Thursday, I took the RV down to the White Pass for a 5-day “staycation”. The White Pass offers lots for me and the dogs...

I’m playing catch-up here again. Since getting home from the big trip, I’ve been having too much fun to even take time to write about it. This post is about a ride on the motorcycle down to see my friend Michelle Phillips’ new sled dog operation on the South...

With sunshine forecast for both Whitehorse and Skagway, yesterday looked like a good day to make the 320-km (200-mi) drive. Cathy had bought a lot of linens at JC Penney’s last huge sale, and it was all waiting for me at the Skagway post office so I had to...

I needed to go to Skagway to deal with a couple of things, and yesterday provided a tiny break between a couple of storm systems that have been and will be dumping a fair bit of snow there and in the White Pass. I was away from the house...

This post was originally written for Destination BC. When their blog was closed, I re-posted it here under the same date. It’s an introduction to the White Pass rather than my usual reports on a specific trip. In the furthest northwest corner of BC is an area of spectacular...

Cathy is in Ontario visiting her family for a couple of weeks, and I’m going to be on the road in the RV for much of that time. I’d thought about a few destinations, but my head just isn’t into anything lengthy or complicated right now, so I decided...
