Summer Solstice Yukon
Awesome Yukon beauty surrounds us in Dawson City. We drove to a nearby mountain landmark called the "Midnight Dome" (elevation of 2964 feet). This is where Jannich went at midnight to see how summer solstice is revered in this area.
He found himself among many young people, hippies and others that were more into smoking pot and drinking. Needless to say he only stayed there till shortly after midnight. The picture with the people was taken on the Dome just after midnight and the picture of the RV park was taken at 2 AM.
The sun sets at 12:20 AM and then gets up again around 3:45 but it still does not get completely dark.
