》Accommodation and Meals

Your home for the duration of the workshop is the Yukon Lake Cabins on the shores of Kluane Lake at Silver City. Picture this: Each wildlife-themed cabin is your cozy haven, sleeping up to three per cabin that invites you to escape into nature's embrace. But wait, it gets even better! Step onto your front deck and behold the breathtaking panorama of majestic mountains and tranquil lake shores. And here's the thrilling part: when the night sky dances with the enchanting aurora, you don't even have to venture far! Simply step out of your doorway for a front-row seat to nature's most mesmerizing show. Plus, we've got you set up with propane heaters, ensuring your comfort and warmth amidst the wilderness.

》Important Note

This is not a luxury tour. While comfortable, please note that accommodations are somewhat rustic and will be shared (roughly four participants per cabin). Know, however, that cabin time is actually fairly minimal - we will be spending a lot of time in the field during this workshop; think of the cabin as the place you close your eyes between capturing magic.
