Mountain biking in the Yukon
"The Yukon has one of the most amazing mountain biking trail systems anywhere in the world...routes traverse high into the Rocky Mountains, along arctic tundra and past ancient skeletal relics from the gold rush 100 years ago. Trails so remote, that they are used more by caribou, wolves and grizzly bears than humans."
Dan Vardamis, IMBA advocacy manager
