New Winter Vacations to the Yukon Make the Sky Light Up

VANCOUVER, October 11, 2007 – Instead of hiding away with a mug of hot cocoa when the chill hits this winter, consider celebrating the season’s magic with a unique Northern Lights vacation to Canada. This unique winter vacation package includes Northern Lights tours and your choice of activities like dog sledding, ice fishing and snowmobiling, setting the stage to rediscover the magic of childhood winters. Based in the pristine wilderness of Canada’s Yukon, the Fresh Tracks Northern Lights Winter Adventure lets you get away from city life for fun-filled days of activity in the great white north. Highlights are sure to be evening tours taking in the spectacle of the Aurora Borealis, but snowy days are just as fun with optional activities like hot springs tours, wildlife viewing, ice fishing, and more. "We wanted to offer people a fun alternative to the usual winter offerings of skiing vacations and tropical beach holidays," says John Parker, CEO Fresh Tracks Travel. "Instead of avoiding the snow somewhere balmy, why not take advantage of the fleeting magic of the winter season somewhere like the Yukon?" This special winter vacation includes 4 nights accommodation in Whitehorse, 4 nights of Aurora watching (including snacks and hot drinks to keep you toasty), a Whitehorse city tour, and knowledgeable guides and transfers. Make the package your own with a number of optional upgrades designed to give maximum affordability and flexibility, including a visit to a game farm and Takhini Hot Springs, a winter adventure package (of snowshoeing, dog sledding, and other activities), flight seeing, snowmobile driving, and much more. "With this package, you’ll get the opportunity to spend an evening in the Canadian wilderness watching the Northern Lights dance across the sky and a day learning to mush your own team of sled dogs," says Parker. "When you take advantage of a season's unique offerings you can really make a holiday memorable."
