I know we are a few weeks behind in posting any news, but the internet is quite slow here and it is extremely difficult to upload pictures and information to the blog.
We apologize for the gap but now we will fill you in with what we have been up to.
After we went to the Wilderness Preserve we had the opportunity to drive to a place called Swan Haven on Marsh Lake. It is a 30 minute drive from downtown Whitehorse and is beautiful! Swan Haven is a spot on Marsh Lake which happens to be where thousands of Trumpeter Swans pass through each year on their migratory pass. We learned that 25% of the world's swan population stops at this particular spot each year. You have to walk about 30 minutes over the frozen lake to see the swans clearly, but you can hear them from miles away. Trumpeter swans can grown up to be 30 pounds, and are quite vicious.....who knew???
Enjoy the pictures, you can't really see the swans...but Marsh Lake is beautiful!!!
