Walking Around Watson Lake, Yukon Territory, Canada










Welcome to Watson Lake.









Watson Lake has a population of about 850.  There's a lot of services here in this tiny community.  Just go to the Visitor Center and ask for help.  Staff will direct you to whatever Watson Lake has to offer.








has LOTS of nearly everything.











Kathy's Kitchen offers
home cooked meals.

Eric at the world famous






Over 70,000 signs have been left by visitors.  We HAVE to make a sign and nail it to a free spot on a wooden post.















Our Milepost Guide describes the Visitor Center as being behind the Sign Post Forest.  I recommend driving past the Sign Post Forest and taking a right into the Visitor Center Parking Lot, which is quite large.








I bought a short piece of pine
board at the Home Building
Center for our sign.







One of the locals recommended
we fuel up at Tempo.











Center has a lounge, pool tables,
an indoor ice skating rink & more...

  1. You are collecting such wonderful memories! If you found our sign to Malta, NY while in the forest, and photographed it, we'll treat you to dinner when you get back............You're invited anyway.
