Accommodations will be at the Sky-High Wilderness Ranch. It is an Indigenous owned ranch with two and four bedroom lodgings available. Students will have their own bed but will be sharing space with other students. Amenities include a wood heated sauna, a large outdoor firepit, and a beautiful remote location for Aurora viewing. Please note, the ranch is a rustic, off grid lodge located 30 minutes outside the town of Whitehorse. There is no electricity or Wi-Fi, and the toilets are outhouses. Groups often leave the lodge feeling well rested and sad to leave the simple life off the grid!

Please note: This trip is open to Indigenous Students only!
