You seem to be…

Relaxed Traveller

You enjoy venturing out in nature, but your dream trip to the Yukon doesn’t stray too far from at least a few modern comforts. Your preference is to have the option to unwind and treat yourself rather than tackling gruelling hikes, but that doesn’t mean you want to miss out on iconic Yukon activities like the northern lights or midnight sun. Arts & culture are a focus and you seek out guided tours so you can learn about the territory’s land and heritage.

Curious Explorer

Your dream trip to the Yukon combines exploration of the unknown with down-to-earth comforts. Seeing the iconic landscape by any means possible is how you like to travel; car, hiking, dog sledding, horseback riding, mountain biking, you’ll do it all. Plus, you’re not shy to ask locals for recommendations. And when it comes to resting your weary feet, the unique lodgings on offer pique your interest.

Extreme Adventurer

You’re all about going off the beaten track and answering the call of the wild with a howl of your own. As a lover of the outdoors, you’ve planned your adventures ahead of time but are always looking to uncover the lesser known and one-of-a-kind activities that can be found by speaking to the locals. Breaking a sweat is how you roll, ride, ski or sled and at the end of a high octane day, you’re happy with a simple tent-pad in the heart of nature.

Quality artwork from an authentic Yukoner...in the land of the midnight sun.

Shirly Ambrose has lived in the Yukon for 47 years and has painted portraits for thirty. It was in her years of living isolated that she discovered her creative side. She is also a published songwriter with worldwide airplay, an author, a photographer, carver and beader with international commissions. She has been focusing on wildlife painting lately.

Shirly lives in a decorated antique log home which sits on a hill overlooking the open lake. The place looks like a cultural myriad museum and a rustic home gallery combined. This is where she paints and carves doors and composes music.
