The Eclipse Noridic Hot Springs Hair Freezing Contest is an annual winter contest. Entries have now closed for the 2019/2020 season, however, to enter in a future year, visit Eclipse Nordic Hot Springs any day during the contest period when the temperature is below -20°C. We are located twenty minutes north of Whitehorse, Yukon.

For every person that entered the contest, our sponsor Tim Hortons donated to the Outreach Van and Nongshim Noodles donated 5 packs of instant noodles to the Whitehorse Food Bank!
