Dolphins in the Yukon by Annie Hunter:Dolphins in the Yukon
"My summer vacation began the minute I left for my mother's fish camp. It took a lot of planning, packing, moving, with boxes and other stuff before we really got settled into the camp. I felt that all that work was nothing compared to the peaceful scenery at camp and the excitement in the faces of my nephews and nieces and everyone else in the family I hadn't seen in such a very long time. In the early part of July my nephew and his fishing partner ran up to the house and said that there were two dolphins swimming up the river. We all ran down to the beach to check, but they were hard to see so we decided to go in one of the boats to get a closer look. They almost looked like salmon but different because they were bigger in size with white backs. We tried to drive them towards the beach, but we didn't succeed, so we followed them up the river until they split and went in different directions. It was a unique experience because it was the first time I had seen them around my mother's camp. Every summer I look forward to going back to fish camp because there is always a new adventure and an opportunity to experience something new. Annie Hunter | |
