Life Along Yukon Roads is a visual journey through the wild landscapes of the Yukon, highlighting some of the larger animals’ travellers are most likely to see from the highway. From bears grazing on roadside dandelions in the spring to caribou moving through snowy winter forests, this small, accessible book celebrates the everyday wildlife encounters that make Yukon Road travel unforgettable. Featuring photographs taken along well-known routes such as the Alaska Highway and the South Klondike Highway, the book introduces readers to iconic species including bears, bison, moose, sheep, goats, elk, deer, caribou, and even the region’s unique wild horses. Rather than traditional field-guide entries, each animal is introduced through observations gained over years of photographing Yukon wildlife, offering insight into their habits, timing, and the roadside moments that make them uniquely Yukon. Ideal for visitors, road-trippers, and Yukon locals alike, Life Along Yukon Roads is both a keepsake and a gentle guide—encouraging readers to slow down, stay alert, and appreciate the remarkable animals that make the Yukon such a wild and unforgettable place.
