ATTRACTionS
The yukon is a big place—482,443
square kilometres big. So getting
from point A to point B really is half
the fun. Driving long stretches of the
klondike Highway from Whitehorse
to Dawson City, we discover quirky
Bun
Run
About 100 km north
of Whitehorse, we stop
at Braeburn Lodge, a
classic klondike road-
house. The eatery
is a checkpoint on
rest stops like Moose Creek Lodge.
The B&B comprises a collection of
rustic log cabins, a general store,
a restaurant—and some giant
“mosquitoes” that put Manitoba’s
own to shame!
the yukon quest, an
annual 1,600-km inter-
national sled-dog race.
Impressive, but the
restaurant’s real claim
to fame is cinnamon
buns. The ooey-gooey
goodies are truly leg-
endary. Larger than
your head, the hefty
pastries taste as good
as they look! »
