What’s there to do in Whitehorse, Yukon in the dead of winter? ❄️ Well, actually as it turns out, a lot! 🇨🇦 Before you ask, yes, we had hoped to see the northern lights, but we didn’t get lucky enough to see them during the 4 nights we were there 🥲 But we still had a lot of fun! 🐕 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗮 𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗼𝗻 𝗮 𝗱𝗼𝗴 𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗱 There are a lot of different outfitters for this must-try activity! We booked with @braveheart.adventures and had a blast. We even got to play with puppies and enjoy some freshly grilled sausages and s’mores around the fire! 💭 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 & 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝘂𝘀𝗲𝘂𝗺𝘀 We had a fun and educational afternoon at @macbride_museum where we learned about the history of Whitehorse and the Yukon. I’d also recommend @kwanlindunculturalcentre (unfortunately they were closed for the holidays for us) 👩‍🎨 𝗧𝗿𝘆 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮𝘁 𝗴𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝗯𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴 We did a 1-hour workshop at @lumelstudios where we each got to create 2 small pieces with the help of their amazing instructors.
