Yeah -- great looking ride, but I'm going to guess from the rock art that entertainment options in Dawson City are fairly limited......

Hey guys,

Nice to see you.
There's lots of entertainment up here during the summer.
That photo was taken at the top of the Dome Road (Giant mountain that overlooks Dawson) The town is full of hippies and kids during the summer who party and play guitar up there, so someone created a little artwork in their spare time.

I'm the senior mining inspector for this region, hence the new location.
It's been a real education but so far it's a lot of fun and very challenging.
Getting to meet a few of the charactors on the various TV shows is kind of cool too.

Regards

Without a clear picture of it, I can't be sure, but the "rock art" appears to be a "Labyrinth". It has a single path, which leads to the center, as opposed to a "Maze" which would have branching paths, most of which dead end.

You can walk a labyrinth as an aid to meditation, if you're into that sort of thing. I'm not.

Nice looking truck, Habs - great to have you back with us!

- Jack

No Sir, but very close to the Border.
From Dawson it's about 100 miles to Alaska via Top of the World Highway.

I don't think I'll ever be sooooo bored that walking around looking at rocks someone has stacked up will be a good idea.
