We left the wonderful hospitality of the Brisley's in the Yukon and started our return leg south (and east, just for fun). We headed out on the 1 east and ran through the beautiful countryside of rolling hills and carpets of trees, with great weather.
We did have a buffalo encounter. There were a couple on the side of the road right in front of the Liard Hot Springs campground entrance that got spooked as we approached. Walter decided it would be fun to run with thim, so he chased them for a few hundred yards while we waited for him at the entrance. No one was hurt, no amubulances, tow trucks or anything. There were no buffalo harmed in the making of this Blog.
The hot springs were awesome. There was a lovely borded walk across some marshes and into the forest to the pools. There were two pools, seperated by a man made waterfall. The first pool was the biggest and was the water entrance pool. Where the water enters the pool, it's 53 Degrees Centigrade. That's 124 Fahrenheit! It cools as it flows down the pool and into the second and is about 34 C or 94 F, that's where most people hang out. I did see one guy venture up into the hot zone. I could only make it about halfway. Felt sooooooo good though to bake out the miles. On to the next update.... -MGates
