Lots of bison spotted on the side of the road during the September long weekend. Returned to the Alaska Highway. D and I went from Grande Prairie to Whitehorse and back. It was an extended long weekend away and a fantastic trip. For the most part the weather was fantastic and we had a wonderful time driving and chatting.

 Lovely herd of about 13 or so bison on the side of the road. They were not at all bothered by us stopping or me stalking them on the side of the road as they slowly munched their lunch. You could hear the munching from where we stood and the swish of the grass as they slowly walked.

 This one was a bit of a challenge but these two elk and a baby (not in picture) were taken at the end of my zoom lense. Chance sighting.

 If you click on the picture and make it bigger you should be able to see the mountain goats that seem to blend in with the rocks.

 Oldest remaining bridge on the Alaska Highway.

 Summit Lake. Isn't it gorgeous?

 Moose...same spot as the year before.

 Maybe the grown up moose that was a baby last year????

 So busy eating and watching tourists at the Hot Springs--squirrel didn't seem to mind the foot traffic.

 Laird Hot Springs....ahhhhh.

 Waterfalls on side of road.

 Rubbing his back in the dirt.

Pointing it out in Whitehorse.

So....since I last wrote. Spent September long weekend headed up and down the Alaska highway. Next weekend was spent in Banff and Jasper. This weekend also spending the weekend hanging around GP. Maybe some cooking...maybe.
