Dawson City sits in a narrow valley.
It shares the valley with the Yukon river, a large fast running
river. Every morning when we get up, the valley is socked in with
fog, due to cold and water. This morning was exceptionally thick,
but we packed up and drove to Tombstone Park anyhow. Near the park
we crested a hill and voila, the fog cleared and the sun shone
brightly. It was the sunniest day we have had in the park. We
planned to do a hike, but the trail we chose petered out before 1 km,
so we drove the car from spot to spot stopping for picture breaks
every 10 km. At one point we turned back due to a storm coming, and
the storm never caught us. For the first time we were able to see
Mount Tombstone.
