Kayla was back in Ontario for work travel, and I was tired of being fogged in at home in Whitehorse. I saw that the clouds might be gone in the westerly direction, and that was all it took! I left Whitehorse in the morning and punched out of the fog Continue Reading

A new favourite trail above Riverdale
November was a busy month with Alaska Miners Association and the Yukon Geoscience Forum, two of my bigger business development conferences / events of the year, and this following a busy September away and October with the move. I’ve discovered one of my favourite trails around our new neighbourhood. It Continue Reading
To Anchorage for a conference
Every November I head to Anchorage for the Alaska Miners Association conference. The conference is mostly for business development, but also some time meeting up with old clients and friends, plus some time learning about what’s been happening in Alaska. While I do love the annual trip, it is quite Continue Reading
Back-to-back trips to Carcross
A big gap in posts is due to 10 days in the field, and then closing on our new home! We’ve spent the time packing and moving, then doing a couple small things around the house. To take a break, we took a quick trip down to Carcross on the Continue Reading
Air North – Whitehorse to Toronto (again)
A week after flying back from Ontario, I was headed right back out for the second wedding of September. We departed on time, and had a high cloud ceiling leaving town, so I got a great view of Grey Mountain and Chadburn Lake on the way out. For the first Continue Reading
A short drive and a shorter hike
With Kayla still out east in between the two weddings, I was alone for the weekend in Whitehorse. The weather in the area was quite sunny and not too cold. My original plan was to drive down to the White Pass and hike up to Fraser/Bryant Lake, but I’d forgot Continue Reading
Two nights in Dawson
I had a quick work trip up to Dawson City for an in-person meeting in between trips back to Ontario for weddings. This’ll be a short post with some of the best pictures, as I didn’t get up to too much outside of working! The first picture is of the Continue Reading
Air North – Whitehorse to Toronto
My September schedule was extremely busy! I was back in Ontario for a friend’s wedding, leaving Whitehorse on the 11th and returning the 17th (though, making a trip up to Dawson the same day). This post will focus on the flights between. We took Air North’s semi-direct service to Toronto. Continue Reading
Hiking the Auriol Trail
Kayla and I wanted to make one last trip out to the Kluane area before travelling back to Ontario for some friends’ weddings. We chose the Auriol Trail as a good, long hike but without too much elevation. The weather for the weekend was initially looking good, but as seems Continue Reading
Clear day in the White Pass
Kayla and I went down to Skagway to see some friends on an Alaska Cruise. While I didn’t take many pictures most of the trip, I did take a few of Carcross and the White Pass the clearest I’d ever seen it. The first picture is Carcross, looking back towards Continue Reading
