Sheep Mountain, located in the Kluane National Park in Yukon, Canada, offers a remarkable adventure to hikers. The mountain gets its name from the Dall sheep that often inhabit it. It is known as Thechàl Dhâl by the Southern Tutchone people. Climbing this summit will reward adventurers with stunning views up the Slims River Valley, south to Vulcan Mountain, and northwest to Mount Wallace, Sheep Mountain's nearest neighbour. This strenuous loop grants access to the summit and is sure to satisfy any ambitious climber.

Eryn's Tips:

• An important reminder that Sheep Mountain is located in Kluane National Park. This means you cannot remove ANYTHING from within the park. Even if you find a cool rock and want to take it home with you, it is illegal to remove anything from a national park, so leave it behind and protect the natural beauty of this place :)

• There are multiple hiking loops you can complete in this area, and all will reward you with STUNNING views. You can get more in-depth information on the different hikes here.

• This region has a very healthy grizzly bear population, so always be bear aware and bring your bear spray! (Again, this is a national park, so no guns are permitted.)

• Make sure to bring your binoculars and check out the mountainside for sheep! There are tons in this area, and you will often see them all over the mountain! In the winter, they are also often on the side of the road licking the salt, so drive carefully around the base of the mountain!
