Mount Logan and Glaciers<br />

For most visitors, a flightseeing tour is the only<br />

way to feast their eyes on Mount Logan—the<br />

highest peak in Canada—and giant glaciers like<br />

the Lowell and Kaskawulsh that make up the<br />

world’s largest non-polar icefield. Just beyond<br />

the sight of highway travellers, glaciers spill<br />

rivers of ice down these broad valleys. Hikers<br />

can see these glaciers, located in Kluane<br />

National Park and Reserve, by going on a<br />

multi-day backcountry hike.<br />

Alsek and Tatshenshini Rivers<br />

Join an exhilarating rafting journey through<br />

remote, unforgettable wilderness. Slicing<br />

through three wilderness parks, the Alsek<br />

(place where people rest) is unmatched for<br />

its dramatic scenery and abundant wildlife.<br />

The Tatshenshini is a <strong>Yukon</strong> rafting classic<br />

with thrilling whitewater, lush forests and<br />

glacial lakes.<br />
