Alaska Highway Picture Thread

[7mag700]

I've been traveling the Alaska Highway a lot lately, especially between Fort St. John and Fort Nelson. Been getting a few good pictures, so thought I'd start a thread for 'em.

Wow what a great shot, isn't that almost what some consider a Ghost moose?

There - no more 'Ghost moose' :-P Apparently I was having issues getting the site to use the Photobucket img code. I'm such a noob. :-(

I usually see bou up there when I go. Specially around mile 146 north. I agree love those eastern foothills. Only gets more beautiful the further west and north you go. Nice pics, bringing back some awesome memories for me. Thanks, Moosin

[gary murray]

Awesome pics 7mag700. You can never get tired of scenery like that and the animals that live there.

[houndogger]

Awesome pics! I would like to take the family up the Alaska hwy for a holiday one day!

[peterrum3]

Nice pics, just planning a trip up the Alaska Hwy. next summer so the wife took a look at your photos as well and is more excited to be doing this trip. Thanks

[Bearen 09]

Thanxs for sharing. I love to see awsome country!

[kjohn]

Thanks for sharing!! My wife and I are talking about heading up the Alaska Highway next year, probably early Fall to catch the leaves turning.

That swamp donkey cow sure has a sway back on her. Maybe she was turned loose by one of those Peace River backwoods person. Judgng by her color, she seems to be well on in age.

Took a trip up to Liard River for business (and pleasure!) last weekend, got some great new pics:

Liard River Hot Springs (wow you feel like a million $$$ after a dip in there):

This is the outflow, downstream a bit from the pool. Small fish actually live in this water!

The melt is on pretty good up there, but the Peace Country had a less-than-average year for snow, may have been less in the Northern Rockies too.
