Road rage, Yukon style

Copyright 2007 Lydia Hinshaw

WHITEHORSE, YT -- Sometimes the whole Yukon isn't big enough for two buffalo who don't get along.
These two got into a roadside tiff and began head-butting each other while we were photographing them Sunday. Perhaps they were just performing for us, but they both looked angry.
Monday we accomplished all our errands in Whitehorse -- getting the car serviced, doing laundry, eating in the quite good Indian restaurant and swimming in the wonderful pool at the Canada Games Centre. Tuesday morning we will be on the Alaska Highway again, and Tuesday afternoon, if no buffalo delay us, we will cross the border into the U.S. near Beaver Creek, Yukon.
We'll be in Alaska, but still a two-day drive from Denali, where we do not need to arrive until May 7.
