Shuttering Yukon's photos

this is an old bed spring we found on a Saturday drive to places unknown

yesterday we went on a little trek, wasn't expecting to find spring(s) we just wanted to see the fall colour (that is almost finished) from a higher vantage point. We dove to Carcross, Yukon.. only about 30 clicks then got the idea we should go up Montana Mountain. This used to be a very accessible road, not so anymore, we should have taken my car, it's a tad skinnier and more ground clearance. (picture of the road I wouldn't let hubby go past in the notes and once past there was huge rocks in the way.. no way in hell was I going the rest of the way) We had a day filled with warm sunshine, clouds, cold wind, and just plain fall but I wouldn't have wanted anything else. We rarely have time to just toss a day aimlessly away! We also found an abandoned (wasn't hard to find, right on the side of the road all fenced off with contaminated signs) gold mine site.. that is where these pic's came from. clickable alternate shot in the notes and in the NOT group

Schwatka Lake, Whitehorse

This is pretty much self explanatory, transition into fall/winter. It was dull and drizzly and I can't believe that still lake. The green colour has never shown itself like that before. Even a lady walking her dog stopped to comment on it. This lake is right in the city so it's easy access. It's a place I go all the time.. it's beautiful at any time of the year.. this day there was one other person there and the loons talking, fish jumping.. it was amazing still and quiet.

the deck chairs, they didn't get much use this summer! I want a do-over

This started as an umbrella on the deck with the sun shining through the railing.. well I just ran with that and added a few random layers.

this is a fairly large metal lawn ornament. This dudes been covering up the access pipes for our pump out on the septic system for years.

I kinda like this, it's different, this is the view from my work. The Yukon River and on the other side is some old government buildings. All the white is pine trees and grass.
