Ken stops a bit short for the night, camping at over three thousand feet, beneath the Three Guardsmen Mastiff.. Trying not to think about the "Sounds of the Baskervilles"
Summit… at last!
October 4th, 2011Summit… at last from Ken Roberts on Vimeo.
1944. Or about quarter to eight in the evening. Ken and his trusty steed finally make it to the highest point on the Haines Road.
Caution: Clip contains some terrible humour, or at least what purports to be wit… You have been warned!
British Columbia beckons – Part Three – beyond the rainbow
October 3rd, 2011British Columbia beckons – Part Three – beyond the rainbow from Ken Roberts on Vimeo.
Ken encounters a rainbow. No gold at the end, besides he’d much prefer a warm bed… And still a long way to go to reach the ferry south from Haines…
Over the rainbow

Ominous sign on the Haines Road. Links Haines Junction in Canada’s Yukon to Haines in Alaska. One hundred and fifty miles of wilderness riding.

Ken closes on the highest point of the Haines Road, the Chilkit Pass. And ponders the possibility of a bear line. Bit like a tree line but perhaps more ambiguous…

On the border between Canada’s Yukon and British Columbia Provinces.
British Columbia beckons – leaving the Yukon

Ken crosses into British Columbia. First impressions, of the weather at least, aren’t good… And there’s still quite a way to go to reach the ferry south.
Blitzkreig into British Columbia
October 3rd, 2011Blitzkrieg into British Columbia from Ken Roberts on Vimeo.
Still no bears, but hordes of Germans.. Just like France, the Yukon and British Columbia being popular destinations. Direct flight from Frankfurt into Whitehorse, most likely the only international airport in the region.
