The trek for the truly adventurous! North to Alaska - land of the Midnight Sun. From rugged snow covered mountains and isolated glacial lakes to the historic boomtowns of the Klondike goldrush. See grizzly bear, caribou and moose....Explore this wild and untamed land - the last frontier!
Northwards from Seattle into Canada and our first stop - Vancouver. Follow the Fraser River Canyon into the Thompson River for an exhilarating whitewater rafting trip. Visit the K'San Indian village near Hazelton before descending the glacier-shrouded Stewart Canyon, and get "Hyderized" in Alaska's southern most city, before heading north on the dirt and gravel Cassiar Highway. This logging road passes through lush green mountain scenery to the lakeside campground at Moose Meadows. Take a wilderness canoe trip on Cotton Lake or hike the local trails.
North to the frontier town of Whitehorse - old time music halls and taverns, relics of the goldrush on the Yukon River. In Dawson City, gamble at Diamond Tooth Gertie's, pan for gold at Bonanza Mine or watch the sunset from Midnight Dome.
Over the Top of the World Highway into Alaska!! Across the tundra to Fairbanks and Mount McKinley's majestic snow-capped beauty. Hike and explore the isolated and beautiful lands of Denali National Park where wildlife maintain control of a rugged wilderness.
South to Anchorage and the pristine beauty of the Kenai Peninsula - an endless bounty of breathtaking scenery: view the powder-blue icebergs of Portage Lake; hike to the base of a glacier; experience the spectacular boat ride down to the sea and observe more marine mammals and birdlife than you can imagine.
Past Matanuska Glacier, head into the valley of the Copper River for a close-up look at the lofty, snow-covered peaks of the Wrangell Mountains, part of America's largest national park, Wrangell-St. Elias.
On to wildly beautiful Kluane National Park and the historic town of Skagway. Our adventure concludes with the four day Cruise Ferry through the famous Inside Passage where wildlife - bald eagles, whales, sea lions - live in balance with nature amidst the unspoilt and unforgettable wilderness of coastal Alaska and British Columbia.
