We've enjoyed another short driving day from Teslin to Haines Junction.

Though we didn't see much wildlife, we did spot our first grizzly bear grazing along the road.

One highlight of our day was a visit to Ian McKenzie (Bill's brother) and the Salvation Army in Whitehorse. Bill is the Executive Director of the Center for Hope, the Salvation Army's homeless shelter. We enjoyed a tour of the soon to open facility.

 
And, as usual, we had spectacular scenery as we drove through the Yukon Territory.
 


Our campsite tonight has a gorgeous view of the Kluane Mountains in the Kluane National Park.

  2. What do the bears eat along the road - just spring grass and flowers and bugs? I never thought of them eating anything but berries, grubs, and fish, but I really know nothing about them.

  3. They eat anything they want to! Bears are omnivorous and will eat a huge variety of stuff. I should have a digestive system like that:)
