Yukon's Winter Celestial Extravaganza
Wintertime visitors to Yukon are often treated to the mystical sight of the northern lights (aurora borealis), a northern celestial lightshow which illuminates Yukon nights from August to April. Pulsating streamers of green, magenta and blue arch and sway over your head as you take in this natural dramatic show from the comfort of your cozy cabin, viewing deck or steaming hot tub.
