Yukon wilderness

Leaving the remote town of Faro, it was straight onto dirt roads, and into the wilderness. A detour to Ross River was required to cram the fuel tanks at a deserted looking fuel station;

With fuel tanks crammed we then had a rollercoaster ride along remote dirt roads for the remaining 360km to Watson Lake;

We saw nothing but remote landscape and very few other people or cars, certainly no buildings. Others were more lucky - spotting cougar and bears :-(

It's been a long trek through the remote Yukon, it's given us a great insight to how people survive here - with harsh winters, labour intensive mining and lot's of liqour to relieve the 'suffering' - in fact you can draw many parallels with Russian Siberia.

Next, it's back into British Columbia - destination Jasper.
