Day 1.
On the first evening guests stay in one of our log guest cabins or yurt overlooking the Takhini River Valley. Each cabin has a sitting/sleeping area and a cozy loft bedroom. A delicious dinner is served in the Main Cabin. Menu items include such Yukon specialties as Arctic Char, Alaskan halibut, and locally picked blueberry-cranberry crisp to name a few (Vegetarian diets can also be accommodated with advance notice.) After dinner guests often choose to relax in the hot tub, enjoying their favorite beverage under the aurora borealis, or up in our loft recreation room watching the latest dogsledding videos on our large screen home theatre.

Day 2.
The next day we begin our dogsledding adventure! After a review of Mushing 101, we mush our teams to our lunch site overlooking the beautiful Dam Lake. After a fireside lunch of grilled caribou sausage we mush back to the homestead working on our balance and dog driving technique.

Day 3.
The following day, clients mush their dog teams on the lower Ibex River Trail past active beaver dams, under the awe-inspiring cliffs of Mount North. This trail is a notch above the previous day’s trail in terms of difficulty allowing us to progress to Mushing 201.

Day 4.
Wednesday sees us dogsledding into our wilderness basecamp. The camp is located in a spectacular valley with magnificent views in all directions. Much of the trail that we will be mushing on has been cut right out of the raw wilderness. This valley has rarely been traveled since trappers were here decades ago. Herds of Dall sheep often occupy the mountain slopes above. A resident wolf pack lives 10 miles down the trail and often comes down the frozen river to howl to our sled dogs on clear, cold nights. Here accommodation is in spacious yurts, circular mountain huts with large dome skylights. Accommodation is rustic yet elegant, with propane lights, authentic cast iron stoves, and pine furniture for guests to relax in while reading their favorite book. Guests eat and socialize in the large, main yurt and sleep in smaller private yurts containing two twin beds that may be joined at their request.

Day 5.
Today we wake up in our cosy yurts and make our way to the main yurt for a hearty breakfast. The dogs get a well deserved day off as we pack a trail lunch and go on a snowshoe interpretive trip down the south end of the valley towards the wintering grounds of the southern lake caribou herd and the Ibex Valley wolf pack. We return in time for a relaxing sauna and shower followed by yet another incredible meal prepared on the wood cook stoves.

Day 6 and Day 7.
On Friday, clients mush back out to the Homestead for their final dinner. On Saturday, we go for our last mush where guests often choose to feel the power of an additional dog on their team or opt to run a technically challenging trail. Of course a nice relaxing run is also an option for the grand finale. Guests may be either be taken to their flight for departure on Saturday or to their hotel on Saturday afternoon allowing for a more relaxed departure on Sunday.
