George Fischer presents a bonanza of breathtaking images that take you up into the soaring heavens and down into the frosty fjords. In between, you'll stand in the footsteps of gold rush hopefuls. Stroll the streets of Wild West sagas. Immerse yourself in ancient cultures. And sip Yukon Jack in cosmopolitan Whitehorse.
