Road to 150: Best Things To Do In The Yukon
In this video, we share some of the best things to do in the Yukon, including Whitehorse, Dawson, Kluane National Park, and more!
Welcome to the Yukon!
Known for its dramatic landscapes, vast wilderness, and the famous Klondike Gold Rush, the Yukon has been capturing people's imaginations for years. With four-legged creatures far outnumbering humans, Canada's tallest mountain peaks, and the world's largest non-polar glacier, the Yukon is a true paradise for adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts.
We started our journey in Whitehorse, the Yukon's capital city. From here, we toured the SS Klondike, ate some delicious food in Whitehorse's oldest buildings, saw heaps of wildlife, and caught a glimpse of the Northern Lights. We then went to Dawson, the worlds most famous gold rush town. While walking around the old boardwalk streets was incredible enough, we also went gold panning, toured the massive dredge #4, watched a Cancan show at the oldest casino in the country, and took a river cruise on a paddle-wheeler. We then drove up the infamous Dempster Highway all the way to Eagle Plains, past the Arctic Circle and into the Northwest Territories. After coming back and spending another night in Dawson, we drove to Kluane National Park for one of the most epic flightseeing tours we've ever experienced.
We explored the Yukon from August 16 - September 6th, 2017!

Canada's Road to 150 is a 150-day Canada-wide multi-media road trip celebrating Canada's 150th birthday by exploring the uniqueness of this country provincially and collectively while answering the question; What makes Canada special?
We will drive to and through every driveable province and territory, showcasing Canada's natural beauty and regional attractions while interviewing Canadians of all cultures and backgrounds, including local celebrities, immigrants, refugees, and everyday rural and urban Canadians. Our aim is to dig deep into what makes Canada such an incredibly inspiring country while showing off the best of Canada's tourism to Canadians and to the world.

About White Pass & Yukon Route:
The first train to operate in Alaska revenue service ran over WP&YR
rails on July 21,1898, at the height of the Klondike gold rush that prompted the
narrow gauge road's construction. At the time, the railway's three foot gauge tracks
extended inland only a few miles from Skagway, Alaska.
Upon completiom in July 1900, with gold fever on the wane, the international route
connected Skagway with Whitehorse in Canada's Yukon Territory via 110 miles of ruggedly
scenic main line along the Coastal mountain range.
For more than 80 years the railway hauled freight and passenger business between
Skagway and Whitehorse and interchanged traffic with a fleet of sternwheeler steamboats
plying the Yukon River and its tributaries.
In World War II, under control of the US Army, it was a vital supply link for construction
of the Alaskan Highway and other strategic infastructure.
In 1955, it became a pioneer in the development of intermodal containerization.
In 1982, the railway was shutdown because of a catastrophic loss of minerals traffic.
In 1988, triggered by the booming Alaskan cruise industry, it reopened as a scenic passenger railway.
It carries more passengers than any other scenic railway in North America.
Today it runs as far north as Carcross (Caribou Crpssing) in the Yukon Territory,
which is located at the north end of Lake Bennett.
The routes era is 1950-1988, covering the full 110 miles from Skagway to Whitehorse.

STARTING THE ALASKA HIGHWAY - MILE 0 - DAWSON CREEK - LeAw Vlog #041
Welcome to our channel! We are Sara and Luca, Italian couple and travel storytellers!
Make sure you SUBSCRIBE to this channel so you don't miss out on future adventures.
We are in Dawson Creek, Mile 0 of the Alaska Highway which we want to do it completely up to Fairbanks. We hope to be able to drive it with our old truck camper until the end.
After leaving Dawson Creek, we started the Alaska Highway ( or Alcan Highway ) crossing Farmington Fairways, Kiskatinaw Provincial Park, Peace Island Park, Taylor, Fort St. John, Beatton Provincial Park, Charlie Lake Provincial Park, Pink Mountain, Sasquatch Crossing, Buckinghorse Wayside Provincial Park and we stopped to sleep (boondock) at Buckinghorse River.
Are you ready to travel with us?

Leave everything and wander” is the result of Sara Bertagnolli’s and Luca Sguazzini’s desire to join their own skills and realize a dream: that of traveling, leaving the certainties and securities of everyday life behind.
After university Sara achieved high-level professional goals in the field of management and became the personal assistant to the fashion designer Philipp Plein.
Luca has been traveling a lot since he was a child and the last year he gained notoriety for his participation in the Italian version of “Dancing with the stars”; he has more than 138k followers on Instagram and 50k on Facebook.
They have decided to join forces and to tell a life out of the ordinary on social networks. The plan is to travel through Canada, Alaska and, in a second moment, United States, Messico and South America and to share the trip’s photos and videos on Youtube, Facebook and Instagram, giving to everyone the possibility to experience the “wander-spirit”.
Traveling without temporal or spatial limits will give Sara and Luca the possibility to entangle their story with that of people they will meet on the road and to discover new cultures, visiting also the places which are not famous, the ones which often have the biggest surprises in store.
The start-up budget will be limited in order to demonstrate that – also without great economical resources – everything is possible if you put the work in and involve as many people as possible.

UNBELIEVABLE! ROAD TO THE ARCTIC OCEAN | Ep 1 Into the ARCTIC UNKNOWN
My most EPIC trip to date was driving the incredible winter roads to the Arctic Ocean. Sponsored by MazdaUSA to British Columbia Canada, we drove 4 Highways, through Canadian Rocky Mountains, Yukon Territory and the Arctic Tundra. There were driving challenges but the end goal was the town of Tuktoyaktuk. Being from Hawaii I had never driven in snow before . This episode is about the drive from Fort St John to Muncho Lake (to Liard Hot Springs) along the Alaska Highway and some of the unforgettable scenery.

CARS I DROVE:
We drove Mazda CX vehicles (CX-3, 5, 9; as a solo traveler, I preferred the cozy CX-3 and as a creator I liked the CX-5’s roomy comfort ), they were all wheel drive outdoor vehicles, so I could drive despite having a solely automatic drive experience.

파이어니스 광장은 시애틀의 탄생의 비밀을 품고 있는 곳이다. 나무로 둘러싸인 작은 광장에선 문화 행사가 끊이지 않는다. 마림바라는 건반 악기를 연주하는 자메이카 전통음악 편곡이다. 나이를 잊은 그들의 열정에 박수를 보냈다. 그들이 떠난 자리에 동상 하나가 덩그러니 서 있다. 150여년 전, 이 지역 인디언의 마지막 추장이었던 시애틀의 동상이다. 시애틀은 바로 그의 이름에서 유래했다. 파이어니어 광장의 입구엔 원주민들의 문화유산인 토템 폴이 우뚝 지키고 있다. 그런데 원래 알래스카에 있던 이 토템 나무 기둥이 이 곳으로까지 옮겨오게 된 사연이 흥미롭다. “여기 있는 토템 폴은 1899년에 도난당하는 수난을 겪었습니다. 알래스카 인디언 클링킷 족이 당시 고기를 잡으러 마을을 비웠는데, 시애틀로 향하던 선박이 해안에 와서 이 토템 폴을 보고 좋은 기념품이라고 생각해서 가져 왔답니다. 이걸 훔쳐온 범인들은 시애틀 봉사 위원회였답니다. 우습죠. 하지만 나중에 사과하고 제대로 값을 치러서, 이 곳에 세워졌습니다.”
