Northwest Territories (NWT) Trip

 September 2019

Self portrait of me at the Yellowknife River in the Northwest Territories.

My last great adventure with my father, he is now too old to travel and hike the nature trails in the wild. I just have the Yukon to visit then I am finished all my provinces and territories. Can't believe I didn't blog about my trip to the NWT it was a grand adventure with ultimate nature parks and great food in my stay at Yellowknife. I do love to visit the North of Canada and the Nunavut still is one of my most favourite places on earth to visit. The amount of stunning waterfalls that are found in the NWT makes this visit one to remember. Cameron Falls is most notable as a water cascade that we discovered deep in the woods.

Wood Buffalo National Park of Canada


It was a great thrill to visit Wood Buffalo which is a Ramsar Site and Canada's largest National Park even though it was basically a drive through we did make some discoveries when we decided to pull over. One of my most surprising encounters was a Two-ranked Bumble Bee didn't think I would happen across any insects in the NWT but lo and behold.
