Aug 11th, what a day for wildlife!
       
Interesting rock mountain with the Liard River flowing nearby, view from Allen's Lookout at Historical Mile 570.  Here is the heard of Buffalo they kept telling us to watch out for we finally came upon them. 
      This was a beautiful view of the river coming through Whirlpool Canyon or Mountain Portage Rapids or Liard River Rapids according to whoever you ask.  It is a real pretty spot so I took the pictures to share it with you.     
This is as close to Liard Hot Springs as we got as they now charge to go in there.  Too many people tell too many people and it gets too busy and there is too much upkeep I'm sure so they need to charge.  It just put a damper on us wanting to go there is all.  We were so fortunate to get to see the Stone Sheep, Punkin Head thought so too!  They were so healthy looking and are licking the salt alongthe road that was put there in the winter time to melt the ice.     
Beautiful Muncho Lake, it is so green.  The sign says:"The striking color of Muncho Lake is created by tiny rock fragments scraped from the valley walls by glaciers and carried by meltwater downstream to the lake.  This silt flows into the icy water where most of it sinks to the bottom.  Fine particles ground to the texture of flour remain suspended in the lake water giving it a milky appearance.  The "milk flour"reflects and scatters sunlight, returning mainly the bluegreen part of the spectrum to our eyes."  Another moose I'll include as it was such a  nice healthy looking one and I got a good shot, with my camera, at it.The rocky cliff is just interesting the way the rock has a wavy effect.I believe this is called Folded Mountain.  The next is of new snow on the mountains reminding us we are glad to be coming home!
         
Two more stone sheep I included seen at a different spot and included because of the baby.  They kept running back over the cliff and back to the roadside.  I just prayed she wouldn't take the baby into the road. The third picture is of erosion pillers, or hoodoo's, seen amidst the rock and gravel filled gorge.The last picture is of Summit Lake located in Summit Pass which is the highest summit on the Alaska Highway at 4,250 ft.
     It is getting late and my eyes are about to shut so will close this and get it posted.
