We ask you to bring adequate clothing to withstand these temperatures. You may buy winter clothing in Whitehorse or rent a clothing package from Northern Tales Travel.
- This tour has many elements of an expedition and therefore changes in the itinerary due to weather and road conditions are a possibility. Northern Tales Travel explicitly reserves the right to adapt the tour itinerary.
- Canadian law requires that you sign a ‘release of claims and waiver of liability form’ prior to participating on this trip.
- Dog sledding requires a basic fitness level and balance. You might have to help the dogs push the sled up some hills. Depending on the snow level or the available dog sled kennel, you might share a sled, have a sled on your own, run on forest trails or river trails. The tours are fully guided, of course.
