Rating: Summary: a real travel-appetizer for all not-yet-yukoners Review: after reading the book one thing is quite clear: my next trip will be to the yukon. It's more than a simple guide: it's a story-telling book, a who-is-who of the territory, a preperation to coming adventures, written in an entertaining, ironically style (see the bear-chapter) with lots of interesting details on how to do this and that and everything (and by the way even a complete, probably life-saving telephonebook) - read, go and enjoy !!
Rating: Summary: Finally a guide book that covers the Yukon. Review: Found this book very up to date The author seems to be from the Yukon and knows what he is talking about. But...there are not enough maps.
Rating: Summary: Really the best guide book on the Yukon.... Review: Hi to all, Last summer, 03, visited the Yukon and only found the Yukon Travel Adventure Guide too late - in Whitehorse. From then on life became easier because the book is not only fun to read but also extremely informative. Wish more bookstores down south would stock the guide book - or, maybe, the author needs a hand in marketing since the publisher (ITMB from Vancouver, BC)is less than helpful. Anyway, its a way-to-go guide book especially since later in my travels through the Yukon and the North run into the author!!! Amazing! I stayed at the Dawson City River Hostel (as neat a place as the come!) and talking to the guy working there and found out he also was the author....!! Things like that only happen in movies.....no?!

Rating: Summary: Go Yukon! Review: I took this book with me to the yukon (in paperback form) and it was quite useful. The 1999 update, in the format of a 4 page insert, was helpful. However, due to the nature of the region, services opening and closing in a season, I found that when I arrived in July 1999 (with the 1999 update in hand) that some of the info was outdated. Regardless, it's an indispensible travel tool to this magnificent region.
Rating: Summary: The author has included a 4 page insert updating the book Review: The most recent changes for 1999 have been included as a 4 page insert by the author. New hotels, a new bus service between Whitehorse and Dawson City and plenty of new information has been added.
Rating: Summary: a bit dated but still the best Review: There really is no better guide book covering the Yukon. Seems to be a bit dated but the info concerning the Yukon is still very accurate especially with the 2003 insert - certainly more accurate than other guide books claiming to have been updated their info in 2003!!!! Do recommend the Yukon Travel Adventure Guide for anybody heading North to the Yukon.
