Summer Update

Written by:

I’ve been on a bit of a hiatus from the blog recently, due to being busy and/or away. Relaxing covid restrictions permitted us to socialize more freely and to leave the territory for the first time in a year and a half, so we’ve been taking full advantage. I’ll try to catch you up on the past summer…

In June, Sam and I got out hiking in the Richardsons again. Similar to last year, the lack of trails made for some difficult terrain, a long day of hiking, but an ever-beautiful landscape.

Early July involved numerous social events, including a beer mile, some kayaking, Faye’s (very brief and temporary) return to refereeing pro wrestling, and an epic going away party for Jarred.

Later in July, I met up with friends from near and far in the Yukon and did some lovely hiking (and a bit of flightseeing) in Kluane National Park and the surrounding area.

After visiting friends and family in southern Canada, Maciek and I road-tripped our way back through the Yukon in late August, just in time to catch the beautiful fall colours.

In early September, I finally got out on Inuvik’s golf course for the first time, and kayaked to the pingos up near Tuktoyaktuk.

Where’s the pingo?
