I came to Whitehorse in Winter and booked the 3-Day-Dogsled-Tour and a 2-Day-Survival-Class with Fabian. What can I say? Fabian is a very friendly, communicative, funny, helpful and commited guy - and he is skilled and full of knowledge. There were times I wondered if there is anything he does not know about Bushcraft and living outdoors....Yet he is very humble and a no-ego guy - professional and experienced, taking no risks in terms of safety for his clients. I started with the survival class - and it was the best I have ever taken (and I have taken a few). Well-structured, solidly based on the essentials of survival, no BS skills and tricks - easy to follow, very interesting and a real eye-opener in many ways. The dogsled-tour was three days through the Fish Lake area -an unbelievably beautiful area and breathtaking scenery. You get your own team of beautiful, charming and very loveable huskies that are so full of energy - which is per se an experience you do not want to miss. This tour was sometimes a little more challenging in terms of physical fitness (steep hills up and down - you have to help the dogs pushing your sled from time to time, or lifting the sled out of deep snow when it's stuck), but also required a certain amount of courage (going down a steep hill with a curve to follow meant also some adrenaline and a need for steady nerves....not for the weary :-) But Fabian will -as he always did- be able to adjust his tours and classes to his customer's needs and abilites.... And no matter how exhausting the day was, Fabian always makes sure that you have a very tasty meal at the end of the day sitting at the camp fire. What you should know is that this is no tour for passive or lazy people - you are required to do your part in caring for the dogs, setting up a camp, getting firewood. And this makes the whole experience just more interesting and real! You are part of it! In a nutshell: one of the best things I have ever done - and I will come back for more. Give Bushcraft Yukon a try - you will not regret it!
