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.
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:

Having a little fun is what these events are all about, so why not have some friendly competition while we’re at it? Our very own Frederick White got behind the wheel of our (STOCK) 1320Video Yukon Denali and lined up against Street/Race Magazine’s very own Kevin Cox in his (MODIFIED) Ecoboost Turbo Ford Mustang! Tweaking the rules a little to keep it fair, they changed from a rolling start to a full on dig race, allowing 1500ft of the Caddo Mills airstrip to show which vehicle was more capable and we have to say we we’re a little surprised! ———————————————————————————————————— Watch more of our recent & related videos!: — Turbo Viper loses to F-150?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8c0W5PhuC8Q — Tiny Honda GIANT Turbo!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDWrU3OrQ6M —Quickest WK2 Jeep Reco...

5 Top-Rated Tourist Attractions in Whitehorse Whitehorse, like Dawson City, owes its existence to the Klondike gold-rush, which began in 1897. Having survived the arduous and sometimes deadly journey from Skagway over White Pass, gold prospectors had to negotiate the Miles Canyon and Whitehorse rapids before descending the Yukon River to Dawson's riches. From the first arrivals, a small settlement grew up on the river's right bank, opposite the present town. The seething, foaming waters of the rapids, rearing like white steeds, gave the settlement its name - Whitehorse (although nothing remains to be seen of the rapids). Home to half the population of the Yukon, Whitehorse has grown into a major center for arts and culture in recent years. The small but lively territory capital is a hub ...

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...
Born and raised in the Yukon, Canada, Joe lives by his wits and knowledge of the region. Joe knows the best spots to pull a pile of trout and grayling out of the surrounding lakes, and while we were floating out on the still lake in the early morning, Joe shared some of the angling skills his grandfather taught him.

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 ...
All the little girls and boys,
Playing with their little toys,
All they really needed from you is maybe some love.
All the little boys and girls,
Living in this crazy world,
All they really needed from you is maybe some love.
Why must we be alone?
Why must we be alone?
It's real love,
Yes, it's real.
I don't expect you to understand,
The king above heaven is in your hand.
I don't expect you to awake from your dreams,
Too late for pride now it seems.
All the little plans and schemes,
Nothing but a bunch of dreams,
