Canol Trail Youth Leadership Hike

Canol Trail Youth Leadership Hike An annual hike for select youth from the Sahtu that want to challenge themselves, improve their leadership skills, and connect with the land

Every July the Canol Trail Youth Leadership Hike takes a group of young hikers from the Sahtu Settlement Area for a week in the bush. The trail is remote and rugged. It is challenging for the body and mind, youth are truly "Walking with Our Ancestors" as they carry all their gear on the own back while travelling on this ancient trail. Long before WWII soldiers named it in the Canol trail, Sh*ta Go

t'ine (Dene people from the mountains) travelled this path through the mountains to the territory we now call the Yukon.
