A comment about my May 6th post: there are no northern lights (visible) here in the summer months because there’s literally no night. So, yes, the aurora really does spend the summer in Emerald Lake. And seeing the Lights stays on the bucket list.
We have almost the whole day to ourselves here in Dawson City, so we strolled about, looking at the shops. Didn’t see anything we liked enough to cram into our already overstuffed bags, but…
we did pay homage to (U.S.) National Donut Day.
Walked along the Yukon River, just downstream from where it’s joined by the Klondike River. Gosh, the dogs that live here leave hand-sized paw prints and scary big piles of scat. 🧐
Kayakers taking a break from their trip down the Yukon. Which is north during this stretch.
Found a great place to chill for a while. Cool (62), dry, and quiet.
