Watson Lake, YT (#Canada150 Pt. 4)

After an incredible 4 days in Yukon Territory, we began our “descent” to Alberta. For this route, we traveled on the historic Alaska Highway — in part, due to the BC wildfires.

To get back down, you travel through both the Yukon  and BC, with very little cellphone coverage, mind you, little civilization as well.

We finally decided to rest at Watson Lake, YT (“gateway” to the Yukon) — population of under 800 people. This area is home the the famous Sign Post Forest. And yes, we totally made a sign to nail up!

    1. Thank you Michael — I keep watching the news, hoping for all to return safe home — those who still have one 🙁 I hope you’re ok.

  1. I’ve always wanted to visit Alberta Emily. Wow, Watson Lake, Yt has a population of under 800 people, that’s crazy. Love your sign, you two are so cute together 🙂

    1. The sign was actually a last minute decision, I am glad we were able to get some wood and post one. I would hate to have left and not added one 🙂

  2. Looks like this part of your trip was rainy, glad you still were able to enjoy your adventure!

  3. What an interesting discovery ! Canada has a lot of wonderful places glad you shared this one! 🙂
