Quest for Hell Canyon

Head out. Be here. Bring home the story.

THE EXPERIENCE

Your day in the north.

With a name like Hell Canyon, you know there’s a story waiting. Our quest takes us by snowmobile through forests and across the winter landscape to Pakasaivo, a ravine lake with a striking setting and a history that has long captured people’s imaginations.

There’s plenty of riding to enjoy before we reach the destination. Once there, we’ll leave the machines and walk to the viewpoint, where your guide shares stories about the lake and the place it holds in the landscape.

A lunch break gives us time to eat, warm up and enjoy being out here before we point the snowmobiles towards home. Forest trails, a remarkable destination and a good story or two—now that’s our kind of day.
