July 12 Valdez and 13th Tok to Haines. 14th back to Whitehorse

Additional Pics from the Valdez area.  In the distance is the Valdez Glacier.
 We had a black bear in our camp which we spotted as we were leaving.  Margie in hast took this shot.  There really is a bear in the picture.  It is the black spot by the tree.  Margie & Lacy had just walked through the area about 15 minutes before.  Maybe it was the bells that startled the bear.
A pond that's formed by the run off from the Valdez Galicer that contains large icebergs.
One of the many falls spotted along the highway into Valdez.
Forgive the bugs on he windsheild.
Lacey's tired of looking at all the trees.
Valdez Glacier with Valdez nestled below, from across the inlet controlled by the pipe-line company.

 
Worthington Glacier
Kluane Lake and our camp site for the night.  The water temperture was 50 degrees.  A little much for our liking.
 After a day of frost heaves, pot holes, gravel roads and construction crews daddy needs a drink
 After a hard day of navigating and putting up with daddy, mama needs a drink too.
July 14 we continue toward Whitehorse in the rain.  Margie took a few shots.

  1. Okay, it was the weekend and I had to take a few days off. These pics are priceless. Why am I not surprised that Margie took the one with the bear that is bleary. Also love the one of Lacey. I think she is tired of Margie. Margie, I think you are wearing her out. Seriously, there are some spectacular pics! Once in a lifetime. Enjoy and cannot wait to hear more when you return.
