This cabin rental in Yukon has major Into the Wild vibes

Alaskan officials eventually put a stop to this by relocating the infamous bus by helicopter to a new location that was safer for would-be visitors. If you’re looking for a remote and rugged experience in Canada’s north with a similar landscape then rent this cabin on Marsh Lake, just 40 minutes away from the capital of Whitehorse.
