Back in the Yukon

Stayed in Whitehorse last night. Headed to the Cassiar Hwy today.  Saw lots of hunters but no bears traveling from the Russian River.  Tim suggested Smithers for bears.  Must be a good tip because someone was mauled by a grizzly there yesterday.  Seems like every place Tim sends us, someone gets attacked.  At least it isn't us.

Will have no access to cell phones for a while and internet will probably be limited as well.  So if you don't hear from us, just remember that no news is good news.  It means we are enjoying the journey.

Here are some bear pictures from friends:

As always, we get better pictures when others take them.  Bill takes the most amazing pictures out of that big green Denali bus.  He gave us some good tips, but I don't think anyone can get pictures as good as his out a bus window.  Remember, just click on any pic to make it bigger.  Then click on the "x" (top right corner) to get back to the blog.

When we left AK, the days were getting six minutes shorter each day.  It was very noticeable.  The tourist areas were mostly closed up or closing.  As mentioned, hunting season was in full swing.  We've never seen that many hunters anyplace else.
