Yukon has some of Canada's most stunning landscapes. Too many photos to post, but we thought this would give you an idea of what we saw while travelling through Yukon. We met a number of residents who used to live in Ontario. We were curious what brought them to Yukon. A number of them went there to visit friends...and never left. Can you blame them?

My special thanks to Cindy for capturing these photos - most of which while on the back of the bike on some nasty roads.
Cin..you are amazing!

Klondike Hwy. Note the colour of the lake. This is the actual colour - no photo touch-ups.

We just arrived in Dawson City. The streets are dirt and there are no sidewalks - just boardwalks.

One of the oldest running stores in Yukon is in Carcross - cool town!
