Skagway to Tormented Valley

After the quick tour of Skagway, we headed on the Klondike Hwy to the Yukon. We got lucky with our tour guide. Very informative but also quite humorous which made the drive a lot of fun. As we cruised the Klondike Hwy we saw some truly beautiful scenery. Mike, the guide was kind enough to make quite a few pit stops on the way so that we could take photos.

A couple of interesting things on the way, in the Tormented Valley there were these trees that were about 3 feet tall. He explained that the became these bonsai trees and that they were roughly around 400 years old. Interesting! And bravo to Sylvia for having amazing eyes to spot a bear. Still trying to figure out how she spotted it since it was a blonde black bear in dry grass area. Hmmm...good eye Sylvia!!
