TESTIMONIALS
“Completed the Yukon River from Whitehorse to Dawson City near the end of August. As mentioned in my July newsletter I’ll publish a recount of the adventure with photos for the membership in the fall. Kanoe People were a tremendous help as our outfitter. We looked at a number of river guides and decided on Len Webster’s Yukon River guides for our reference. Excellent blend of river information, maps, camps, and history.”

“Len – thank you for your comments and your fast response to my email! I appreciate it. I had 18 people on the trip in 2016. This year there are 8 of us, a more manageable group size. But everything worked very well in 2016. Using your trips guides and finding the campsites that you recommend makes a big difference to the success of the trip!”

“We used another guide to complete the Whitehorse to Carmacks portion of the Yukon River in 2008. We were not completely satisfied with it. Tried your guidebook when we returned to complete our paddle from Carmacks to Dawson City last summer. We like you to know that it was extremely helpful. Reference to coordinates, best campsites, and historical and natural information was interesting and current to where we were along the river.”
