Snowshoe Tour through Yukon Wilderness

Overview

On this fully guided tour, we snowshoe through a winter wonderland to a frozen waterfall. Along the way, we experience the beauty of the Yukon's wilderness and learn about the plants and animals of the Boreal forest. At the waterfall site, there is time for exploring, watching ice climbers(!), and enjoying snacks and hot tea around the campfire.

The day begins at the Mt Sima Ski Lodge where you will meet your friendly guide and select your snowshoes for the day. 

Once we are packed and ready, we will travel to the trailhead, a one hour drive along the famed Alaska Highway.

At the trail head, we put on our snowshoes and begin our trek through the beautiful Boreal forest, stopping to take photos and learning about local plants and animals along the way.

The hike is moderate difficulty, with some elevation gain near the end. There are plenty of opportunities for rests and refreshments, including our special Equinox winter tea that will both warm and energize you.

The trail brings us to a beautiful frozen waterfall. Take photos and explore the caves and crevices that are created when the ice forms.

At the waterfall site, we will gather around a cozy campfire and enjoy snacks and hot drinks. And of course, more stories. 

Note: we also offer an Ice Climbing tour in the same location. You may be lucky enough to be at the site while other adventurers are climbing the frozen waterfall!

We return the way we came, with new memories and stories to tell.
