A Different Kind of Water Taxi

You get across the river your way, and they'll do it their way:

Caribou get a ride near Circle during breakup on the Yukon River in early May.

Rev. Paul,

So many animals do it this way, my hope is they make it across to actual land and don't drowned or starve to death.

I like your header page on your blog.

Sandy, caribou are strong swimmers, but this group appears to be protecting young'uns. The ice will drift closer to shore as long as the water is rising. And thank you.

Ummm... Does this classify as a 'slow boat'???

Rev. Paul said...

NFO, I was thinking "raft", but maybe that's just me. :)

I'd be rather surprised if you tell me there are ice floes in the Phoenix area ...

Yep, just little float trip for the family. :)
