Day 1-3 - This fun dual sport adventure begins with the optional three-day Dawson City Music Festival. Festival-goers will meet early on Day 1 in Skagway, Alaska. That night we will check into our hotel in Dawson for the weekend after an all-day drive across the Yukon from Skagway. The festival features excellent Canadian musicians, a relaxed atmosphere and a chance to enjoy historic Dawson. Everyone is on their own schedule for food and fun during the festival.

Day 4-6 - On Monday (Day 4), we put in on the Yukon River and begin our 100-mile float to Eagle, Alaska. Folks joining us for the shorter 8-day trip will fly from Whitehorse to Dawson on Monday morning. The Yukon river moves along at a good pace with the option to either paddle or drift with the current. We spend the next 3 days camping on islands and visiting historic sites along the way.

Day 7 - We arrive in Eagle, Alaska and meet our tour van. Bikes are prepped and we begin our ride back to Dawson on the Taylor Highway. The hard pack dirt road ascends to American Pass where we camp for the night.

Day 8-10 - We continue south on the Taylor Highway and camp near the junction of the Top of the World Highway. The next day we turn onto the Top of the World Highway and cross the US- Canadian border back into the Yukon Territory. This section provides stunning views across the Yukon Plateau. We ride the ridge east, savoring views of the Tombstone Mountains and the river valley. We camp in the alpine tundra. Our last day of riding ends with a nine-mile coast down to the river and a short ferry ride across to Dawson. We spend the last night in our hotel in Dawson.

Day 11 - We return by van to Whitehorse to meet departing flights in the afternoon. Participants have the option of continuing with us in the van to Skagway, Alaska. From Skagway you may travel on your own by either small plane or on the State of Alaska Marine Highway Ferry to Juneau to meet departing flights south.
