If you’re driving the Alaska Highway along Kluane National Park, take the time to stop at the small centre at the base of Sheep Mountain, near the bridge across the Slims River. Amazing mountain views, and a good chance of seeing Dall’s sheep on the slopes. The Centre at Haines Junction is also worth a visit, with lots of info on First Nations history and the St. Elias mountains. Kudos to Parks Canada for emphasizing hiking safety and awareness in this wilderness bear country.

Kathleen Lake was one of the top highlights of our visit to the Yukon. We loved it so much we went back 3 times in 2 days. There is camping on-site, but we were just there for the view as this was a photo trip. Kathleen Lake did not disappoint.

The Da Kų Culture Centre is an innovative cultural facility located in Dakwäkäda (Haines Junction) in the southern part of Canada's Yukon Territory. Da Kų (Our House) celebrates the culture and traditions of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations (CAFN) Dän (people). The centre is a teaching, curatorial and interpretive facility, providing programming directed to our Citizens as well as the general public. Da Kų honours our language and stories, our strong connection to the land, and our living culture. Da Kų also connects the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations Dän to the wider community of Dakéyi, our southern Yukon and northwestern British Columbia homeland. These links are illustrated by the other agencies housed in our facility - Parks Canada's Kluane National Park Visitor Centre, with its feature exhibits, and Yukon Government's Visitor Information Centre, which showcases pieces from the Yukon Permanent Art Collection. No admission is charged for visiting Da Kų. We recommend a couple hours be allowed for visiting the centre.

Helpful staff happy to share their extensive knowledge of the terrain and high-quality videos about the history, flora and fauna made this a stop worth making. The building is beautiful too., not all sections are open to the public though due to covid 19.
