Day 25

Another long day of traveling- 770 miles in one day. Very tiring. But hey, its worth it to get to the west coast. Leaving Whitehorse, we encountered lots of smoke from nearby forest fires. It was somewhat annoying but made for some nice misty pictures. Two bear sightings today- both black bears. Check out some cool pictures of them down below. The cubs are especially cute. Also, we saw an awesome old church and totem poles in a small town. The unexpected things we come across are some of the best experiences so far.
