Watson Lake,Yukon

We just realized that yesterday was the one month anniversary of our departure from Beaufort. Funny thing is, it seems like at least a month. Today was a relatively short day. We saw a few more bears and some more of those sheep plus, as an added bonus, we saw several Bison. There is supposed to be a herd of caribou around here but we haven't seen any yet. Watson Lake was an important staging area for workers who built the original Alaska Highway. It's current claim to fame is a sign forest begun in 1949 that now contains over 70,000 signs. Tomorrow will be a fairly long day. Whitehorse is about 6 1/2 hours away.
