The Toronto Star profiles Peel River in the Yukon, a growing sources of contention between miners and environmentalists:
For some 67,000 stunning square kilometres, there are no parks or marked trails, no campgrounds or RV hookups, only isolated hunting camps, and the wild plants and animals that live in one of Canada’s most diverse ecosystems.
Human visitors number only in the hundreds each year, mainly paddlers and hunters who venture into the remote region in canoes or on horseback and float planes.
The region is rich in iron ore, gold, uranium, zinc and other minerals as well as oil and natural gas.
Mining companies have several camps on the edge of the watershed, waiting for the green light from the Yukon’s government to rush in, clear roads and start digging.

Strongsville real estate
St. John is located on the Bay of Fundy. It is the largest city in New Brunswick and is known for its reversing falls. This series of rapids and whirlpools are overcome by the high tides of the Bay of Fundy. At low tide the falls are normal. This did not stop the jet boat from taking passengers through the rapids for a guaranteed soaking. The twenty minute ride has many of the thrills of riding down the Colorado at a fraction of the cost.
