Yukon (/ˈjuːkɒn/; also commonly called the Yukon) is the westernmost and smallest of Canada's three federal territories. Whitehorse is the territorial capital and Yukon's only city.
The territory was split from the Northwest Territories in 1898 and was named the "Yukon Territory". The federal government's Yukon Act, which received royal assent on March 27, 2002, established "Yukon" as the territory's official name, though "Yukon Territory" is also still popular in usage and Canada Post continues to use the territory's internationally approved postal abbreviation of YT. Though officially bilingual (English and French), the Yukon Government also recognizes First Nations languages.
At 5,959 m (19,551 ft), Yukon's Mount Logan, in Kluane National Park and Reserve, is the highest mountain in Canada and the second-highest on the North American continent (after Denali in the U.S. state of Alaska). Most of Yukon has a Subarctic climate, characterized by long cold winters and brief warm summers. The Arctic Ocean coast has a tundra climate.
The Chevrolet Tahoe (and very similar GMC Yukon) are full-size SUVs from General Motors. Chevrolet and GMC sold two different-sized SUVs under their Blazer/Jimmy model names through the early 1990s. This situation changed when GMC rebadged the full-size Jimmy as the Yukon in 1992. Chevrolet waited until 1995 to rebadge the redesigned mid-size S-10 Blazer as the Blazer, renaming the full-size Blazer as the Tahoe. The name Tahoe refers to the rugged and scenic area surrounding Lake Tahoe in the western United States. The name Yukon refers to the Yukon territory of northern Canada. For the 1995 model year, the Tahoe and Yukon gained a new 4-door model slotting in size between the 2-door models and the longer wheelbase and higher passenger capacity Chevrolet Suburban and newly named Yukon XL.
The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety has praised the Tahoe as one of the best of its class. The Tahoe is sold in North America, The Middle East (Except Israel), Republic of China (Taiwan), The Philippines, Chile, and Russia as a Left-hand vehicle. The Yukon and Yukon Denali is sold in United States, Canada, Mexico, Republic of China (Taiwan), and the Middle East (Except Israel) in LHD.
Charles Stankievech (born 1978) is an Canadian artist, writer, publisher and curator.
As a result of the wide spectrum of strategies and the conceptual drive behind the production, his work has been located in the Conceptual Art tradition (e.g. the exhibition Conceptual Filiations ).
Stankievech has published in academic journals, critical theory anthologies, artist catalogues, magazines, and fiction.
In 2007, he was one of the founding faculty members to establish the experimental art college Yukon School of Visual Arts--a unique institution bringing together the local indigenous government, the state ministry of education and the local grass roots art community. As part of the curriculum, he created and curated the Over The Wire project series that invites established artists to collaborate with students to produce new work under the restriction of long-distance communication.
In 2011, he co-founded the publishing project K. Verlag | Press based in Dawson City, Canada and Berlin, Germany.
A Wild River (United States, Australia, & New Zealand) or Heritage River (Canada) is a river or a river system designated by a government to be protected and kept "relatively untouched by development and are therefore in near natural condition, with all, or almost all, of their natural values intact."
Within some nation states including in the United States of America, Canada, New Zealand, and the Commonwealth of Australia, governments have opted to focus on rivers and river systems as a kind of "unmodified or slightly modified" landscape feature to protect, manage and preserve in near 'natural' condition – variously labeling or formally declaring such areas to be "Wild Rivers" (or "Heritage Rivers").
The term "wild river" may also more generically describe or identify free flowing rivers without dams.
Where rivers or river systems may be labeled 'Wild Rivers' with the intention of protecting them to a Wilderness (IUCN Category 1b) standard, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) warns:

With depressive video store clerk Raven helping to fend off the horde, they may stand a chance of making it through the night without getting devoured - or worse. But who is Miller, and what connection does his missing wife have to these horrible creatures. By the time the weary survivors find out, it may already be too late.

That's our city
In April of 2008 I drove from Lake Tahoe to Haines, Alaska up the Al-Can highway through British Columbia and the Yukon with an enclosed 4-snowmobile trailer and a ton of gear. I told myself the year before after a few years of getting "shut out" with heli time, that I wouldn't come back up without snowmobiles....instead of sitting around drinking myself into oblivion on a "down day." Well thank God we did that because we definitely had down days again right from the get-go. The sledding up at Haines Pass is out of control good. Even staying closer to town like below Old Faithful is great. Can't say enough about how much fun it is to ride snowmobiles up there with no trees. So the first legit day after that main snow storm cycle, we still went out snowmobiling one more time wanting t...

My three favourite things in the world are mountains, aurora and snow. In early 2012 I got all three of them in spades when I spent nine weeks in the frozen north of Canada's Yukon Territory, thanks to the generosity of my hosts Andrea and Florian Lemphers. With four cameras and dozens of lenses, tripods and a truck full of extreme cold weather gear, I journeyed across the Yukon and chased every gap in the clouds I could find. Three terabytes and a long learning curve later, this video is short compilation of some of the best footage I captured during my aurora adventures. Details about this video: Cameras: 2 * Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 1100D (aka Rebel T3), Canon 5D. Lenses: Canon 24mm f1.4L I & II, 14mm f2.8L, 10-22mm f3.5-5.6.

Walk the “Great Wood” of Northaw, a 520 acre biological Site of Special Scientific Interest, protected area and one of Hertfordshire's most important Oak wood forests. Once part of a huge Norman woodland and originally used to hunt deer and wild boar, this quiet nature reserve and country park supports a wide ecosystem of natural wildlife, meandering bracken trails and ancient birch woodlands. Our 14km walk will take us through a peaceful Hertfordshire town and directly up into the densely packed Home Wood, adjacent to the Great Wood itself. From there the winding trail follows bending streams and open meadows, along rolling paths of Hornbeam and Oak. At our halfway point, we’ll sit at the woods highest point, amongst an open glade (Norman word for opening in forest) and relax. Our retur...

In late July and early August the caribou cows and calves of the 332,000 strong Leaf River herd migrate southbound from their calving grounds and steadily move in groups well inland from the coast of Ungava Bay. In 2014, we took Dutch photographers and filmmakers Paul & Jose Wolff deep into the Ungava Peninsula of Nunavik Canada to experience and film this rarely seen wildlife phenomena. This resulting film was taken by and copyrighted to Paul Wolff - and used with permission. Traveling by motorized freighter canoe up a remote Arctic river along with an Inuit guide and camping en-route, the small group of adventurers encountered the fringe of the great caribou migration. Over a period of days they saw thousands of caribou - sometimes in groups of hundreds at a time - swimming the river at ...

Living in this crazy world,
