About Tincup Wilderness Lodge
|
 |
The fly-in only, luxury lodge is nestled in an area of unrivaled natural beauty. Located deep in the heart of the Yukon's Ruby Range Mountains, the lodge is an oasis of comfort surrounded by pristine wilderness and the crystal-blue waters of Tincup Lake.
|
Located at the foot of the Yukon's St. Elias Range, home to some of the tallest peaks and most breathtaking glaciers in North America, is beautiful Tincup Lake. Over 12 kilometers long, game-filled valleys and mountains surround the lake.
Tincup Lake is best known for its exceptional fishing - in particular, lake trout and Arctic grayling. Other species include several species of whitefish (including the majestic Inconnu) and northern pike are abundant in the waters around Tincup.
When Tincup Lodge was built in 1991, no expense was spared in constructing the finest of facilities. The main lodge offers sweeping views of the lake and surrounding mountains, and features a dining room, bar, kitchen and large outdoors deck with a hot tub for the guests. The duplex cedar-log guest cabins each have their own cozy wood stove, covered verandah and private bathrooms.
Guests at the Lodge have the opportunity to enhance their wilderness experience in a number of ways. Guided day hikes range from nice, easy treks along rock and gravel filled creek beds to more strenuous hikes up any one of the 1500 to 2000 metre high mountains which completely surround Tincup Lake. The hikes offer guests the opportunity to see and photograph wildlife, flowers and panoramic vistas of unspoiled Yukon wilderness. The only trails visible are the well worn game trails followed for centuries by migrating caribou, moose, Dall sheep and grizzly bears. These trails also serve the hiker with easy access routes to the high alpine country where guests can wonder for hours and still be in constant site of the lodge below. Overnight sleep outs on top of any of the surrounding mountains can also be arranged.
In addition, the Lodge also provides it's guests with unlimited use of it's cedar canoe, rowboat and one person kayaks. The long, quiet evenings and perfectly still waters of Tincup Lake provide our guests with the perfect opportunity to glide up quietly and observe at close range, moose and other animals grazing at the waters edge.
After a full days activities and a satisfying dinner, guests are invited to try the wood fired sauna or the six person hot-tub before retiring for the evening. Following dinner, our resident Yukon First Nations guide and story teller extraordinaire, Mr Ron Chambers, will entertain guests with own true life experiences in the Yukon as well as enlighten his listeners about First Nation history and life in the Yukon.
