Fuel Prices april, 6th 2006

by sovidoug

I would like to know what the price per liter of diesel is in Whitehorse, YT, Canada and the surrounding area is at the present time and what may be expected this summer (if known). We are planning another trip to Alaska and northern Canada with a diesel truck and a 5th wheel trailer. Thank you!!!

Hi, as of april seventh, fuel in whitehorse is 119 a litre. suprisingly enough, it is ofen less expensive along the highway. contact creek, about 30 miles before watson lake ofgten has the cheapest on the highway. watson lake is usually expensivbe. How do I know all this? I have lived in the Yukojn for over 30 hyears and own and operate a resort on the alaska highway at km 1232 called dawson peaks resort. website dawsonpeaks.ca hope this helps. dentisto, aka Yukon Dave

As an average, you can figure on diesel being 10-15 cents per liter cheaper than regular gas in Canada and 10-20 cents a gallon higher than gas in Alaska.

Travel Tips for Whitehorse

Head north and travel towards...

by Ratty

Head north and travel towards Dawson.

From Dawson you can head up the Dempster Hwy towards Inuvik (a torturous trip) and into the Tombstone mountain range. Experienced backcountry hikers only, but also several good day hike opportunities into the tundra.

On the way back stop at the bakery in the little (about 30 residents) town of Keno along the Silver trail. A great way to relax and enjoy some Klondike history.

For a true feel of the north try a winter visit. These places come into their own when the RVs leave town. Went there to visit an old friend and would visit every 3 months if I could. I miss the atmosphere in Whitehorse. Being yourself is expected and if you don't know who you are then expect to feel out of place. Summer is play-time in the north and good weather days are opportunities that are not passed up.

Stop by Otter Falls. This picturesque falls was once featured on the back of the Canadian 5 Dollar bill.

I will put a picture up here soon of it. Travelling the lonely road from Haines Jct. to Aishihik Lake one is liable to encounter the odd wood bison in the area. (click for a larger view)

The Bar Bell

by TerryD

You will often notice a hanging bell by the bar at local drinking establishments. Be aware that if you choose to ring this bell, you'll be expected to buy a round for the house. And yes, it does happen "on purpose" as well.

by Kindra

These are a few tips that I was given on my flight from Vancouver to Whitehorse by a wonderful man named Will who had been living in the territory for a long time: these tips can probably be trusted, but if you do take advantage of them, dont hold me responsible for whatever happens!

1.)When walking or hiking for a long period of time, Will recommended that I find two small round pebbles and place them at the very back of my mouth (one on each side) tucked between my cheek and back molar. This evidently produces moisture within the mouth and you wont feel thirsty...

2.)When camping, especially in bear country (essentially the entire territory) one must always hang your food up high (bears arent great climbers). He also recommended (and I am not too sure on this one) that I get a can of raid and cover it in honey, placing it near the campsite. According to him the bear will bite into it, having the raid spray into his face and this will deter him from visiting again (he would know better, but I feared this may antagonize the animal.. who knows?)

Dog Racing Anyone?

by jamiesno

During my stay in Whitehorse, I got to attend a social event which was the kick off of the Yukon Quest a world famous dog team race.

I didn't get the pleasure of seeing the races but did meet a couple ushers and this sport is certainly part of the culture in the Yukon!
