Kennedy 2 Give yourself the gift of awe, under the midnight sun You’ll be amazed. Perhaps astonished, or even dumbfounded. The Yukon’s natural wonders and iconic experiences have a way of doing that. Whether hiking on a mountain ridge, flightseeing past glaciers over Canada’s tallest mountains, paddling a canoe on a pristine river, or driving the Dempster Highway to the Arctic, you’ll find yourself in awe at the scenic splendour in every direction. And all over the Yukon, from late May to early August, the sun barely sets, if at all. It’s quite a feeling. In addition to long, long days, the midnight sun brings wondrous, golden-hour views that last for hours. With 24 hours of daylight, you’ll fit in plenty of adventures during your stay. YG, R. Postma travel yukon.com 3 Larger than life Almost 80% of the Yukon is pristine wilderness. That’s over 350,000 square kilometres of mountain vistas, boreal forests, wild rivers and crystal blue lakes. And since there are 10 times more moose, bears, wolves, caribou, goats and sheep than people, there’s the possibility of seeing wildlife around every bend. Yukon’s natural splendour is truly jaw-dropping. YG, P. Mather travel yukon.com 4 Matt Jacques M. Founds Melodie McKenzie YG 5 YG, P. Mather YG, C. Archbould YG YG, C. Archbould 6 Northern lights– dancing with the stars Yukon’s northern lights are a sight to behold. Here, you’ll revel in the sound of silence, in the snowy hush of a winter’s day. By day, try the thrill of running your own dogsled team. At night, stand in awe under the dancing lights. The northern lights can be viewed from mid-August (when it’s still warm) through winter (when it’s not!) to mid-April. Our tour operators rent winter clothing to visitors who need it. Seeing the aurora on any given night is a combination of solar activity and visibility (clear weather). While there are never viewing guarantees, typically, guests who plan for a three-night stay will not be disappointed. Come to the Yukon and experience one of the great natural wonders of the world. S. Wackerhagen travel7 yukon.com 7 Walk where legends walked Step back a hundred years and feel the euphoria and grit of the Klondike Gold Rush. Stroll the fabled streets of Dawson City and kick up your heels in Canada’s oldest gambling hall. Channel the pioneering spirit as you ride the gold rush train, tour the paddlewheelers or stand on Discovery Claim—Yukon’s hallowed ground. Your adventure starts where the world’s last great adventure left off. YG travel yukon.com 8 YG, C. Archbould YG, C. Archbould YG YG 9 YG, C. Archbould Enviro Foto YG, J.

Archbould travel yukon.com 11 THE YUKON BECKONS–ICONIC DRIVES With close to 4,800 kilometers of all-season highways, in an area over 480,000 km2 (that’s the size of Spain or California), we encourage all visitors to venture further afield to enjoy EXPLORE the Yukon’s regions and communities. With 11 diverse highways, the Yukon’s spectacular scenic drives are lined with parks, historic sites and abundant wildlife, making this a road-touring paradise for cars, RVs/campervans, and motorcycles.

In the past they were stewards of the land on which they lived, knowing that their health as people and a society was intricately tied to the health of the land. In response to the Berger enquiry of the mid 1970’s, the gov- ernment of Canada made a commitment to recognize this relationship by estab- lishing new programmes and institutions to give the Gwich’in people a role as stewards once again. One of the actions taken has been the creation of a formal land use planning process. Many people from all communities in the Gwich’in Settlement Area have worked diligently on land use planning in this formal process with the government since the 1980s.
