For a few years I have been gathering and accumulating equipment for a serious Yukon prospecting expedition (6 week initial budget) 2-3 man camping crew. I will be driving from south eastern PA up through to Dawson city, 3883 miles, 70+ hr drive time. From there we will make a quick 1 day stop in Alaska just to say we were there. After that we will head south back to the Yukon where I have several good locations in mind to start. The setting will vary from creek prospecting to higher altitude bench locating.
If I have it all together I will plan to leave sometime April 2015. Equipment I already have and questions below.
