Have you known the "Great White Silence", not a snow-gemmed twig a quiver? Mushed your huskies up the river? Then harken to the wild it's calling you. (Source: "Call of the Wild" - Robert Service)

Have you ever wondered about the wild in winter ... the words of Robert Service stirs up images of cool, clean, crisp snow and adventure in river valleys and along forested trails. Have you ever wondered about how you could enjoy Alberta's winter wonderland with safety and comfort?

Experience the joy and wonderment of winter by joining Klondike Ventures for Dog Sledding, and backcountry experiences.
