Yukon and North West Terr. bed and breakfasts: The Northwest Territories is a land of contrasts. It is 1.17 million square kilometres of mountains, forests and tundra threaded by wild, clean rivers feeding thousands of pristine lakes. Over 40,000 people live amid this rugged natural beauty. Nature is in balance here. You can view rare wildlife species, from white wolves to white whales, and see herds of bison, prowling bears, moose and caribou by the thousands. Poet Robert Service once referred to the Yukon as "that raw-ribbed wild that abhors all life." The Yukon is a tamer place than it was in Service's lifetime -- the lawlessness of the gold-rush days has faded, and a few refined towns now dot the map. But no one would dispute that the territory contains some of the most majestic wilderness on the continent. This is a raw, isolated land -- many places remain literally untouched. Clear blue lakes, mountains, glaciers and silence stretch for miles/kilometers, and both the caribou and the bears outnumber the people. During winter, the green, red and blue northern lights flicker overhead. For more information on each property please click onto their individual photograph. |
