One of the advantages of hosting the Canada Games is the beautiful new sports centre that's left behind.
In this one glorious facility are a couple of rinks, pools, 3 courts for playing soccer, basketball, whatever... various wellness centres/studios, etc., and a walking track on the third floor, It's beautifully decorated with various art on the walls and even a flock of copper geese flying down the corridor.
Miles Canyon was beautiful beyond measure and I can't wait to return and hike some of the trails.
Between Miles Canyon and Whitehorse is a flyway for both the swans and the float planes.
Further downstream is the power station that really turned things around for this northern town. Major development was made possible after the power of the river was harnessed for electricity. This was not allowed to happen until provisions for the salmon spawning were made, hence the fish ladder.
