    There is the chance to see the northern lights any time between late August and late April. For winter tours we typically recommend February and March, to maximize the dark hours while taking advantage of warming days. By the beginning of April the snow will be starting to melt and some winter activities like dog sledding are no longer available. Average daily temperatures in Whitehorse in February range between about -5 to -15 celcius, sometimes as cold as -20 to -25 if there's a cold spell. Evening temperatures are about 5-10 degrees cooler. March daily temperatures are between 0 and -10 degrees, with some days getting up to 5 degrees.

  Will Mar be too late to bite the northern lights? Also, will it be better to go to Finland or Iceland to review it?

    March is a fantastic time to view the Northern Lights in the Yukon as well as enjoy other winter activities during the day. We recommend any time in February or March for this trip, based on availability. There is a chance to see the Northern Lights any time of year in the Yukon, although it depends on weather and cloud coverage. This Yukon experience offers great viewing opportunities including a full evening tour at a dedicated viewing site (unobstructed views of the sky plus a heated cabin and bonfire), and 3 nights at a remote lakeside resort with no light pollution around it.
