Was only there for a short day trip and there was cloud cover, but you can’t hide the beauty! A nice easy hike, a picnic in an enclosed space with a nice fire and views in any direction. I’d like to make it back some day in August or September. If you’re as far north as Dawson City, it’d be a shame to miss this. The Dempster Highway is also an impressive feat. We crossed the continental divide and went as far as Two Moose Lake - the Arctic Circle was so close and yet so far.

Visit the NWT Dempster Highway Visitor Centre to learn about the Dempster Highway and Western Arctic Region of the Northwest Territories. We are open seasonally from late May to early September. Enjoy our displays, or talk with one of our knowledgeable staff about the authentic experiences to be had in the Western Arctic.
This is a must visit if you are doing the Dempster highway all the way, Be sure to get the very comprehensive guide they have and be sure to have all the prep they suggest on your vehicle. Great information, film and exhibits.

Must do in Dawson. Spectacular view of Dawson and beyond. We will be back to see the Northern lights (if we get a clear night).

very interesting historical past. A must see on your Yukon Tour. Dawson Creek a gateway to the Alaska Highway, the only major road that connects Northern BC, the Yukon, and Alaska to southern Canada and the lower 48° states of the United States.

The George Black Ferry ferries cars and pedestrians across the Yukon River connecting Dawson City and the Top of the World Highway. It crosses by demand. You line up and wait for the ferry. And now you too have crossed the Yukon River by boat and it is free. What could be better.

With no pans and no teaching on site, you’ll need to come prepared and find your own perfect spot in Bonanza Creek to “shake” and “swirl” your way to finding gold! Pick wisely, because at Free Claim #6 you get to keep everything you find!
