Bennett Lake on the Klondike Gold Rush trail is a lake flowing into Nares Lake, with the greater part of its area within Yukon. Canada's highest point, Mount Logan (5,959 m or 19,551 ft), is in the territory's southwest. Mount Logan and a large part of the Yukon's southwest are in Kluane National Park and Reserve, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Other national parks include Ivvavik National Park and Vuntut National Park in the north.
With the Yukon Quest trail ranging in elevation from 440 feet to 4,002 feet, going over mountain ranges, through river valleys, and across windblown tundras, winding around lakes and along side glaciers, the weather is just what you might expect. Wild! Gusting winds, whiteout blizzards, subzero temperatures.
