Can a River Be a Person? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For five generations, Carissa Waugh’s family has had a fish camp on the Yukon River just north of Whitehorse. It’s near a spot on the braided, arterial waterway that widens and glints like a gold coin in the sun when seen from a plane. On maps, the area is shaped like an anatomical heart. In this slower section of the river, salmon can rest on their long migration from the Bering Sea to spawning grounds anywhere from 150 to 3,000 kilometres upstream. The camp has been here even when her great-gr

YOUR MORNING STARTS with a stroll in Parker Park on the shores of Range Lake. It’s summer and hot, so you’ll cool off with a dip in a nearby creek. You’ll play at the ball diamond before getting a towel service (sometimes, there’s a mud bath) and being chauffeured back home. Later, you’ll receive candid photos—of yourself relaxing, smiling in the sun and meeting new friends. This itinerary sounds like the agenda for a treat-yourself outdoor getaway, but this is just the average daily routine for

The week I moved to the Yukon, I hiked with a group of women who gave me the lay of the dating land. One of them mentioned a semi-regular party at a house north of town. “If you stay past 11 p.m.,” she said, “you’re there for the orgy.” Initially, I thought this was a sign I’d moved to a place that was progressive and open-minded when it came to all things dating, sex and love. Eventually, I realized it was just one of many (sometimes suffocating) idiosyncrasies of the North that had never touch

Scuba Dive The Arctic is not your regular scuba diver’s hotspot. But if you’re feeling brave enough, bring your flippers next time you’re up in Qikiqtarjuaq. Just above the Arctic Circle, Nunavut’s iceberg capital is also an unofficial capital for clamping your jaw and jumping into icy waters. But hire a local outfitter who will make sure you find a good spot to explore the seabed or even try your hand at digging northern clams. Be quick, though. The salty water can get to below zero and hypothe

I WANT TO TELL the owner of the RV lot to stop congratulating me. I’m sure campers are an exciting purchase for customers who buy them to go camping. For me, its purpose is less thrilling: evacuating Whitehorse if a wildfire grows out of control. My partner, Chris, and I already have a recreational camper, a squat little thing from the 1960s with a bed, a kitchen counter and a checkerboard’s worth of standing space. It’s fine for two people and two dogs on a weekend adventure; less so if a fire
