  • On a quest for the Northern Lights, we enjoyed our visit to Yellowknife, Northwest Territories, Canada. Kick back at the Woodyard Brewhouse and see the area like never before! Ride a dog sled, drive the ice road to Dettah and visit the Snowking's ice castle. Oh yeah, and see those magnificent Auroras too. 17 minutes of fun! "On you huskies!"

      Thank you Jessica. My wife and I think Yellowknife is one of the most enjoyable travels we'v experienced. And plan to go back, maybe in the summer. We have other documentaries on youtube: camel caravan into the White Desert of Egypt, Ecuador Gate 1 January 2019, Entebeni game reserve in South Africa, etc. Thanks for your enthusiastic comment.

    The dogsled may look like fun but it’s important to be mindful of the fact that many of those dogs are not treated well there have been documentaries on that.

    :( I've decided to go Yellowknife on 17th December, which mean I can't drive it on the ice road. That's so sad. If I had watched this video, I would've booked the ticket on January. 🤣

    Wonderful video Yellowknife looks to be a very Interesting city but being from Australia I don't know If I could cope with such cold temperatures, Here In outback Australia we are lucky if our temperature drops below 12 degrees In winter, Here In Australia we have the Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) they are mainly seen In two states Tasmania & Victoria, you tend to get the better displays In Tasmania & southern Victoria, I'm located In NW Victoria 100kms from the town called Mildura I've just taken up photography & have been on 3 aurora chases since September last year with a friend & she has got Aurora on every chase. The Auroras In our area are mainly red, pink & purple & are absolutely amazing & that's one of my missions to take my own photo of the Aurora.
    For anyone wanting to chase the Glendale app is very good real time Aurora Information as It happens.

      Zahid, we went in March of this year. Lots of snow activities in Yellowknife at that time. The aurora began each night early once it got dark so we didn't have to wait all night. We had been in Iceland to see them the previous month but had no luck. The lights at Yellowknife were bright and varied each night. Thanks, Rick

    • @skycamproductions
      @skycamproductions  Před 4 lety +1

      we were there in early March. I can't remember the company name but they go to Pontoon Lake to see the aurora. So make sure they do that. Some companies cater to Asian visitors. So there is a selection.

      (Not the poster) I’m 13 and I haven’t been to all places but one that’s pretty good is the copper house, when I went there they had all kinds of pizzas and other items, like if you ever went to Boston pizza, those items but way better. I can’t really think of anything else but that, there’s also a fat burger and a Mary browns if you had t tried those. Fat burger is a burger fast food chain with other items, and Mary browns takes a old take to food if that’s how I can put it?
