AURORA<br />

WINTER FUN 3 DAYS<br />

Yukon aurora viewing<br />

combines just the right amount<br />

of excitement, inspiration and<br />

comfort. Spend your days dog<br />

mushing, sightseeing and sampling<br />

local cuisine in Whitehorse, and<br />

spend nights watching for the<br />

northern lights.<br />

Day 1 –<br />

Busy Days, Dazzling Nights<br />

Whether you’re staying in a hotel, lodge<br />

or cabin, this getaway is all about snowy fun<br />

and chasing northern lights. If you didn’t<br />

pre-arrange winter gear with a tour operator,<br />

rent or buy what you need from local supply<br />

shops and retailers. Plan to join scheduled<br />

sightseeing, outdoor activities and aurora<br />

tours, or explore on your own.<br />

Shop summer markets – YG, C. Archbould<br />

Day 2 – Winter Wonderland<br />

Spend a day dogsledding for the thrill of<br />

coasting across the snow with a team of<br />

friendly Yukon huskies. Try snowshoeing, ice<br />

fishing or cross-country skiing. Or maybe you<br />

prefer a quiet day curled up with a book in a<br />

cozy cabin with a spectacular view.<br />

An exhilarating day of dogsledding – S. Wackerhagen<br />

Day 3 – Dabble in Yukon<br />

Arts and Culture<br />

Whitehorse is full of great shops, galleries<br />

and museums that are open all winter. Catch<br />

up on your sleep, hang out with the locals in<br />

lively cafés, or attend a concert at one of our<br />

venues. Stroll Main Street keeping an eye out<br />

for an authentic piece of local art or special<br />

memento of your Yukon aurora adventure.<br />
