Site description

- Before you begin your trip, you and all members of your party must watch our backcountry orientation video, either online before your arrival or at the Interpretive Centre.

- Yukon Parks does not provide potable water at this campground. Plan ahead, bring your own water and use discretion when gathering water from natural water sources for drinking or personal use. Research your equipment before visiting. Standard water treatment may not remove elevated levels of naturally occurring metals and minerals or acidity.

- Natural water sources are not guaranteed suitable for drinking or personal use. Gather and consume water from natural water sources for drinking or personal use at your own discretion and risk.
