One night. Three Yukon bucket list moments: climb big ice, feast by fire, and chase the northern lights deep in the wild.
We kick things off at the Ice Tower — a frozen giant that begs to be climbed. Axe in hand and crampons crunching, you will swing and kick your way upward with Yukon peaks as your backdrop. Whether it is your first time or you already have experience, topping out on ice this big is pure adrenaline and pure fun.
After climbing, the adventure continues up the mountain. We have teamed up with Mount Sima to bring you by snowmobile / ATV to their cozy heated mountain hut. Think crackling fire, warm fondue, and unbelievable views stretching over Whitehorse, the surrounding mountains, and endless Yukon wilderness.
From this perch high above the valley, the sky feels close and the world feels wild. When the northern lights appear, you simply step outside, breathe in the cold air, and watch the show dance across the horizon with a hot drink in hand.
Small group. Big adventure. Pure Yukon magic.
Please note: Northern Lights are a natural phenomenon and sightings cannot be guaranteed. Their appearance depends on weather, timing, and solar activity.
