Hiking in the Yukon
The call of nature and the great outdoors led Alex Godard to go on an adventure in the Yukon. Alex has hiked extensively to experience the breathtaking scenery, Yukon glaciers, wildlife and incredible peaks 🙂 .
The Yukon is located in northwestern Canada between Alaska, British Columbia and the Northwest Territories. It is the least populated territory and province in Canada with about 35,000 inhabitants. Its capital Whitehorse has 25,000 inhabitants, which is more than 70% of the Yukon's population. 😅
The Yukon is a hiker's and adventurer's paradise. The wilderness is abundant and the mountains are endless. Expeditions of several days are possible to discover the virgin lands of the Yukon. It is important to live together with the animals and our friends the bears.
