Dog Sledding

800-719-2181

Yukon & Sled Dog Tour -- What a great Yukon experience! Miles of pristine wilderness, crystal lakes, waterfalls and (weather permitting) glaciers, and the dog sled ride of a lifetime!

Your all day Yukon adventure begins as we follow the 1898 Gold Rush Trail over the summit and on into Canada's legendary Yukon. As your guide relates the stories of the stampeders and their trials, you'll leave behind the coastal rainforest and enter the subarctic alpine tundra of the "Tormented" Valley - a virtual moonscape! We'll see the White Pass Trail of '98, the Fantail Trail, and Summit & Fraser Lakes before passing back into the boreal forest for Lakes Tutshi and Tagish. View the historic silver mines of Conrad, Bove Island, the native village of Carcross and the Carcross Desert, affectionately known as the world's smallest. Even though the winter snow has melted you can still enjoy 20-25 minutes of summer dog sledding on our custom wheeled cart, on a dirt trail.

Very Important:
US-Canada Border Crossing Information
~Canada will not allow a U.S. citizen into the country who does not have the proper documentation to return home. Everyone from every country arriving in Canada or the USA by air, land or sea now needs a passport or equivalent travel document. Equivalent travel documents include:
1. NEXUS CARD: A partnership between the Canada and U.S. border services that pre-approves entry for travelers by land, sea or air between Canada and U.S. An added benefit is designated and faster lanes at border crossings and airports. Application process involves interview and fingerprinting. Both U.S. and Canadian citizens apply through U.S. Customs and Border Protection.
2. U.S. PASSPORT CARD: This U.S. Department of State-issued ID is valid for entry into Canada by land or sea, though not valid for international air travel.
3. ENHANCED DRIVER'S LICENSE (EDL): EDLs indicate both citizenship and identity and are valid for entry into Canada by land or sea, though not valid for international air travel. As of January 2009, EDLs were only available in Washington and New York states, but were planned for Vermont as well. See individual state licensing departments for more info.
4. FAST/EXPRES CARD: This U.S. Customs and Border Protection program pre-approves commercial truck drivers for travel between the U.S. and Canada.

Children ages 18 and under are required to present proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate - passports, of course, are also acceptable.
~If one parent is traveling with a minor child without the other parent, they must also have a notarized letter from the absent parent stating approval for the one parent to travel across the US-Canada border with the child.
