We left Watson Lake for a long 163 mile drive to White Horse, Yukon Territory. As we were heading North we came to The Rancheria Falls which we just had to see. The site is large enough for several motor homes to park at the same time. There is a wooden walkway that goes through boreal forest to the picturesque falls.
Situated at the confluence of the Nisultin River and Teslin Lake, Teslin began as a trading post in 1903. Teslin has one of the largest Native populations in Yukon Territory and much of the community livelihood revolves around the traditional hunting, trapping and fishing.
The First Nation People have Teslin Tlingit Heritage Centre which we stopped to see. It was very interesting and the country around the lake is beautiful.
