Detailed itinerary
Day 1
8am – meeting point is our GoNorth Base Camp in Fairbanks. After a short Introduction and preparation for the next 5 days, we will start our trip on the Dalton Highway. We will take a nice long rest on the shores of the mighty Yukon river, approximately 4hrs drive from Fairbanks. 2 hours later, we will cross the Arctic Circle to arrive in Colfoot. Overnight at the campground near Coldfoot.

Day 2
We prepare our canoes and rafts, load up all our gear and food. Soon we start paddling. We’ll have plenty time to explore the little ghost town of Tramway Bar that once was a hustling and bustling place full of hope and dreams during the goldrush. This evening we enjoy our camp on the shores of the river by a crackling campfire.

Day 3
Magnificent rock formations are the feature of the middle section of our river journey. The high mineral contents in this area has lured many pioneers to these remote places. Weather and preference of all participants will determine the program for this day. We have plenty of time to explore this breathtakingly beautiful area, take all the photographs we possibly can, search for wolf and bear tracks on the sandbars, dip our line in the river in the hope to catch a fish for dinner, hike, relax, dream and cook – short – enjoy a day in the wilderness.

Day 4
We arrive in Bettles, a little community across the arctic circle. We enjoy a shower, dinner and a bed in the Bettles lodge.

Day 5
Breakfast at the Lodge.
Return flight from Bettles to Fairbanks
