THE ELEVATION HUSKIES ARE READY TO TAKE YOU INTO THE WILD!
The nearby village of Carcross is named from the term Caribou Crossing. This area where you will be mushing is also referred to the as the Southern Lakes region. Beautiful lakes surrounded by mountains, the head waters to the mighty Yukon River. It is in this area that gold seekers from over 100 years ago were launching north towards Dawson City, by dog teams in the winter, by boats in the summer. Eventually there was a railway established from the port of Skagway to the interior village of Whitehorse. This railway allowed Whitehorse to become the hub of the Yukon. The railway now abandoned, makes a great modern day dog mushing trail for us to enjoy. The history of the Yukon is amazing and we cannot wait to get into the Yukon Wild with you!
Our goal is to give you a dog mushing experience that you won’t forget! Our guides are passionate about sled dogs and enjoy nothing more than sharing them with you. Check out this awesome video to give you a better sense of what Elevation Sled Dogs is all about!
Celebrate the beautiful fall season by spending your afternoon with us, as we take you into the Southern Lakes Region, one of the Yukon’s most picturesque locations. Highlights include;
Join us for an afternoon full of excitement and beauty!

Into the Wild we go! This epic half day sled dog tour begins with gearing up, and a brief retrospect into the life of a Yukon Dog Musher. You will then be introduced to your team of huskies and will soon be on your way down the trail! At the halfway point of your tour, we will park the dogs and take in the massive vista of great Bennett Lake, have your cameras ready! The huskies will let us know when it is time to race for home. After you say goodbye to your team , take in the thrill of the Wild Adventure Yukon Wildlife Gallery!
All dog sledding tours are “Learn to Mush – Self-drive”, this means that your own personal guide will be along for the ride with you in order to teach you how to command the dogs and how to control the sled. Tours begin at either 10:30am or 1:30pm. If using our shuttle service, you will be picked up 1 hour before your tour begins (9:30am or 12:30pm).
$255 Adult, $180 Child 10 under, $60 Shuttle, add on Wildlife Gallery $20
This amazing wildlife gallery houses an array of Northern taxidermy displays from ancient times to present day beasts. Featuring grizzly bears, moose, bison, a life-size woolly mammoth, and also the World’s largest polar bear, this is a true Yukon experience and you will be awe struck to see these majestic creatures up close.
The Elevation Group Adventure is perfect for larger groups of people who are content with a shorter time on the Sled Runners. The fire will be going with warm drinks and snacks provided. Every 20 minutes, groups of guided sleds will take 2 people per team for a fun mush through the twisty local trails, long enough to say You did It, and short enough so you don’t get too cold!! Your guides will offer guests a brief education about the role of Sled Dogs past to present in Canada and be available to answer any questions. The famous Wild Adventure Yukon Wildlife Gallery will also be available for you to view. And just maybe, there will be cute puppies to help keep you warm around the fire.
