Well it is now Thursday and we got on our way from Watson Lake about 10:am. We had been advised to take it slow on this leg of the trip as there would be plenty of wildlife along or on the highway to view. We passed the Cranberry Rapids and came upon a couple of buffalo herds. One beside the highway and the second one pretty well on it.
We have left the Yukon for the last time at least on this trip, but plenty more to see yet.
Stopped in to Laird Hot Springs. Some of us soaked our feet others jumped in. After a hot dip we had lunch in the park - Laird Hot Springs Provincial Park that is.

Continued eastbound and viewed assorted mountain goats, and caribou.
Stopped at the Toad River Lodge for gas - and a view of the 1,000 plus hats hanging from the ceiling. Went onto Ft. Nelson where we camped for the night.
It was here that we decided on Brad's suggestion to alter our trip to head east into Alberta. After checking it out on my computer that it wouldn't add kilometres or in my case - miles onto the trip we agreed.
So off to bed with visions of Alberta dancing in our head.
