Today we headed to Kluane National Park What a spectacular drive through the park. The mountains are so beautiful with their snow capped peaks and lots of pull-outs to stop and enjoy the scenery and take pictures There was so much to look at and enjoy What a totally beautiful area of the Yukon
On Kluane Lake since the glacier is receding the river that flowed into the lake from the glacier melt changed course and now flows into another river valley thus creating a broad sand plain where the river once was and the prevailing winds blow the sand. We could see the dust blowing from miles away but did not know where it originated until we saw the lake. The owner of the campsite said the lake will eventually find its own level based on the outlet river You can see the blowing sand in the pic below
Brian's cousin had recommended a RV park on Kluane Lake and it was absolutely one of the best RV parks we have ever been to. We backed onto the amazing Kluane Lake with mountains behind.
Our Campsite was amazing
Oh and look what was right behind our RV Lovin the BEACH
Took a drive one day to Haines Junction and a very pretty Kathleen Lake. Went to a very small town called Burwash Landing which is home to the Yukon Natural Museum. We were pleasantly surprised by the size and scope of the museum - they had all the wildlife (taxidermy) from the whole Yukon on display It was larger than we expected and very well done.
On our way back we encountered a momma Grizzly and 2 cubs on the side of the road munching on the grass. Stopped for a bit and watched from the safety of the truck. Brian is happy now what an unforgettable experience and was one of the highlights for Brian as he really wanted to see a grizzly
Kluane National Park and Kluane Lake are absolutely beautiful and we spent 3 days there and it was really hard to leave Wish we could have stayed longer
