Glacial lake at 705 m altitude near Kluane National Park. Extremely cold water (4-10°C), fed by glacier melt. Rocky and sandy bottom. Variable chop. Valley winds channeled by mountains. Moderate fetch. Breathtaking landscape of snow-capped mountains and glaciers.
Glacial water — drysuit MANDATORY. Potentially fatal hypothermia within minutes. High density of grizzly bears in the Kluane area. Violent and unpredictable valley winds. Extreme remoteness — Haines Junction is the only nearby community. Changeable weather and arctic conditions possible even in summer. Only for very well-equipped experts. Never ride alone.
