The Snake River runs through the heart of the largest “unroaded” wilderness south of the Arctic Circle. It is a journey of incredible beauty through the mountains of the Peel Watershed on the east-side of the Yukon Territory. Dallís sheep, caribou and grizzly bears roam the land while golden eagles and peregrine falcons soar the skies. A group of conservationists gathered together for a river trip to rally support for the conservation of the watershed and and to experience the Snake wilderness for the first time. The Tetlit Gwichin people have a heritage of hunting, fishing, and trapping in the watershed, and their cultural history is strongly linked to its waterways.
