Lakes and Rivers

On this leg of the epic journey following in the footsteps of 19th-century Klondike gold rush prospectors, Dan and his team attempt to traverse perilous waterways.

Having made their way through Alaskan coastal mountains, Dan and his team now attempt to cross waterways featuring unpredictable weather and turbulent rapids. The journey is made even more treacherous by the fact they will be using a basic wooden boat, built according to original designs from the time of the gold rush.

They must then paddle hundreds of miles along the mighty Yukon River to reach Dawson City, gateway to the Klondike.
