Join us as we travel overland from the Pacific to the Arctic, along snow covered highways built along ancient wildlife corridors, and traditional trading routes of First Nations traders - later used by Klondike Gold Rush prospectors and NWMP patrolmen.
We start heading north from Whitehorse after we enjoyed the winter scenery from up in the air during a sightseeing flight. At the Yukon Wildlife Preserve we’ll see and learn about natural inhabitants of the Arctic. The route offers some of the greatest geographic diversity in the country; the Tombstone Mountains in the central Yukon are among the youngest mountain ranges in North America, while the low rolling Ogilvie’s with their naked spines were not glaciated during the last Ice Age, and thus are among the oldest. North of the Ogilvie Mountains, the landscape gradually flattens to low tundra and crossing the Arctic Circle the Richardson Mountains, the Northern-most extension of the Rocky Mountains, come into view.
