We returned to Canada in late June. Our first stops were Windsor and Edmonton to see family and friends before heading to Whitehorse.
We spent a few days with Greg's brother (Paul) and wife (Sue) before starting a rafting trip. Day hikes and trip preparation were the main objectives. The photo shows Greg making his way up a trail near Haines Junction.
Never let it be said that we haven't hung wet clothes on antlers.
Here's Paul and Sue taking in the awesome beauty at the edge of Kluane National Park.
Much of Kluane is virtually inaccessible. We decided to go in a small plane over part of the park to appreciate the incredible scale of the area and to see Canada's highest peak, Mount Logan.
For perspective, Kluane alone is about half the size of Switzerland. Parks in Alaska and British Columbia join with it to form the largest internationally protected area in the world.
The mountains were truly majestic.
This is 70 km long Lowell Glacier.
Canada's highest mountains rise above the largest non-polar icefield in the world.
Back down on earth, we were given instructions on how to set up a tent. Here we are looking like we did when we bought our first house.
