From Whitehorse, we drive north by van along the Klondike Highway, passing the Five Finger Rapids of the Yukon River. In the afternoon, we fly with our equipment by floatplane to Clarke Lakes. We set up camp on the shore and enjoy our first campfire.

We begin our canoe trip on the shores of Clarke Lakes, heading towards the Beaver River. Following streams, we discover the small lakes. Reed-covered banks and occasional branches increasingly challenge our paddling skills. In some places, we portage around fallen trees. This area is home to numerous moose, which we may spot. Breathtaking mountain ranges rise above the spruce forests surrounding us. We camp at beautiful spots along the lake and riverbanks. As the current picks up, we paddle up the Beaver River. We maneuver our canoes along gravel bars and enjoy the panoramic views. After the small streams and lakes, we now see the captivating expanse of the landscape. Rewarding fishing often provides us with a delicious catch for dinner.

The Stewart River, the Yukon River's smaller sibling, greets us with a faster current and a wider riverbed. Here, we can even drift with the current at times. High, rugged mountains surround us. We frequently spot abandoned trapper cabins or settlements along the riverbank. The river's water level constantly increases due to numerous tributaries. Baggins Canyon, with its bright white water, is a welcome change of scenery. The river's character changes again as we approach two larger rapids (Class II-III). From a distance, we can already hear what's coming, and we scout the rapids from the bank. After portaging our gear, we can paddle through the rapids and then reload our canoes. Shortly after, we reach Fraser Falls, which we portage around with our equipment and canoes.

After a short stretch on the river, we reach the town of Mayo again. From here, the van takes us back to Whitehorse. Overnight stay in a hotel in Whitehorse.

Transfer to the airport or to the connecting program in Dawson City (Explore Remote Valleys | Trekking Tombstone Mountain (8 days)). (As this is an expedition-style trip, short-notice changes to the itinerary are possible and at the discretion of the guide.)
