| Yukon Experience |
| |
 |
|
|
|
| Though knitting and qiviuq are the focus of the weekend, you will also experience the Yukon. In addition to seeing the muskox at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve, you will have an informative tour of the Preserve to see the other northern animals – caribou, mule deer, bison, moose, elk, mountain goats & sheep. |

|
| Just down the road from the Preserve is Takhini Hot Springs, a natural mineral spring where you can swim or soak to relax. At the end of March, it will still be winter in the Yukon, but the sun will have returned. You will sit in the hot pools, head cool, body hot, enjoying the mountains that surround you. It is a wonderful experience! |

Whitehorse is known as “the wilderness city” ... a blend of spectacular northern scenery, vibrant community life and all the services you need, including Knit Now, the local yarn shop! (What more does a person need?) |
