@ The Boreal Forest Land
After we went past "Riley Creek," we drove across "Taiga," for a while.
The ground totally turned crimson, and I learned many moose
live in this area. Right!! I could see a moose in the distance.
The moose with big antlers in the picture is male moose.

A Savage River
As soon as we crossed a bridge, we saw a checkpoint.
Only the cars with the special permission can go further in.
After we went through the checkpoint, we saw a ptarmigan,
which is a protected species in Japan, on the road.

B Teklanika River
We took the 1st break here. There were lots of buses,
people, and long lines for the washrooms.
From this area, a view suddenly opened up. For the width
of the river, there was a small amount of the water.

C@Sable Pass & Polychrome Pass
As we drove the road up to higher sea level area, the path without guardrail
contiued. It's mortally freightening for the people with the fear of height!!!!!
He stopped the bus there to let us enjoy the view.
The scenery from the cliff was so spectacular and vast,
and the great tundra area spreads out as far as my eyes can reach.
