We are now on the Alaska Highway, continuing our adventure
of this summer. Shortly after we leave
Dawson Creek, we come across some great views….
Our first bear!! I
know, we actually have seen a couple so far, but this is the first on the
Alaska Highway, and that makes him special somehow! Anyway, altho he raced across the road, we
had to really apply our brakes to stop in time (we could smell our brakes). Above is the view of him with the highway in
view, and below, it’s all him!
There were some great views along the highway. Oh, and I apologize in advance for the
quality of some of the images. They were
all taken at speed (between 50 – 60 mph roughly) and thru the windshield. Just follow the winding road….
Now, you can’t really tell by this image, but we were
starting a pretty steep decline. We came
around the bend and saw this, and both Jeff & I said “Wow” – me because of
the beauty of all the textures on the side of the canyon…..Jeff because of the
beautiful view, but also because of the curve of the road coupled with the
decline angle! I processed this with my
HDR software, just to give you a more realistic image of what it truly looked
like!
I really love how blue the water was in this river, and
couldn’t help but include this image to illustrate how wonderfully beautiful
the drive was!
Enjoy!
