SKG-276 Yukon Adventure Tour
A Family Friendly
Tour
Our tour starts from Skagway and travels the Klondike
Highway all the way to the Yukon Territory. The beauty is
unsurpassed as the road begins at sea level and rises to over 3,000 feet
in under 20 miles. The magnificent scenery includes temperate rain
forest, alpine tundra and boreal forest. This is a tour for the
photographer, the adventurer, and the lover of the outdoors.
The Yukon Adventure includes stops at cultural,
historical and natural landmarks. From 3,000 foot waterfalls to
1,500 foot deep glacial lakes, this tour is a trek through a land with no
fences and seemingly unending wilderness. Historical mileposts
include Log Cabin, the northern terminus of the Chilkoot Trail, and the
Venus Mill, a rustic abandoned silver mine. Other sights include:

A Yukon tour is the best opportunity to see wildlife in
their natural environment. Black and brown bears are seen all year
(although never guaranteed), and frequent in the spring. Moose are
occasionally spotted bathing in the many lakes and rivers that parallel
the road. Eagles are commonly seen soaring overhead. Other
wildlife spotted include marmots, lynx, mountain goats, coyote, wolf and
birds too numerous to mention.
The marvelous countryside will enthrall even the most
seasoned tourist. Wildflowers abound during the spring and summer,
changing the color of entire mountainsides. Crystal blue skies
dominate the spring and summer's red fireweed blooms give way to vibrant
orange and yellow leaves in autumn.
