Or perhaps a black bear, moose or eagle will be seen along the river's edge.

Canoeing trip down the Yukon River

Camps are set up on the gravel & sand banks of the mighty river, where you can enjoy a refreshing bath. The only major interuption to the river's smooth journey is the mighty Five Finger Rapids, once a major navigational problem for the large paddler wheelers. Around the campfire you will hear about the solution found for this problem and some interesting stories about the first river travelers.
