Near the ‘Visitor Reception Center’ in Whitehorse you will find the ‘Berrigan Cabins’. These historic buildings create a suitable ambience for a business that offers a comprehensive travel program for adventure tourism. In 2013, Yukon Wide Adventures moved into one of these old log cabins built around 1940 by a sickly Martin Berringan, who had settled in Whitehorse after the Klondike Gold Rush, with the slogan "life is too short to allow for getting sick."
Thomas de Jager came to the Yukon with a similar motto. Working worldwide as a computer scientist for German companies, Thomas used to be reachable at any time. He longed for a life without internet and mobile phone. The Yukon offered just that: here he could finally feel free.
