Yukon Territory Climate

Summers are warm with almost continuous daylight during June. Winters are bitterly cold with limited daylight.

Required Clothing

Days can be hot in summer, but sweaters and light jackets are advised for the evenings. In spring and autumn coats and gloves are required for outdoor activities. Thermal underwear, wool sweaters, parkas, wool gloves or mittens, and mukluks (traditional Arctic hide boots) or felt-lined boots are advised for the winter. Clothes made with synthetic insulating fabrics are widely available, effective against the cold, and easier to pack than bulky wool or down-filled clothes; they also dry faster.
