Caribou on the Hwy 26

What a treat it is to see the caribou on the road. They are not too shy and seem more interested in road salt than in vehicles passing by. Luckily they are easy to spot and many early season tourists get to see them.

Caribou just near Devil's Canyon

Spring in Barkerville 2011

This year spring seems to be a good month late. there is still plenty of snow in the bush and snowmobilers are having a great time in the mountains. Dandelions are not even thinking about coming up.  A lost black bear came around in New Barkerville, desperately looking for something else to eat than wilted grass from last fall. Mountain bike season is just around the corner on km 2 on 1600 RD... that's where we hit snow last Sunday. We'll try again this weekend.
