The YUKON Magazine

Do you live for epic paddling trips with no shortage of whitewater or opportunities for hiking and wildlife viewing? If the answer is “Hell, yeah!” but you’ve never heard of the Yukon’s Firth River… well, there’s a hole on your bucket list. In this repeat episode from July 2023, former host Karen McColl talks with writer Chris Carli about his life-altering experience paddling through a remote northern landscape with a huge population—of migratory caribou. Hear how one remarkable encounter turned an avowed hiking-hater into a guy who will at least concede that a little hoofin’ it can offer spectacular rewards.

The Klondike Gold Rush History Podcast was a labour of love between two Yukoners who share a deep-rooted passion for local history. Produced by Pascale Halliday and her father, Keith, the 22-episode series guides listeners on an epic journey from the origins of the greatest gold rush the world has ever known to its apogee during Dawson City’s salad days of ’98. And, of course, they can’t get from one to the other without spending some nerve-wracking time on the Yukon River. From an interview near the famed manes of the now-tamed White Horse Rapids, Pascale reflects on her personal connection to the gold rush and the family affair of the podcast’s production. Then she goes with the flow of our Fall issue’s current theme—rivers, rivers, rivers—by introducing our presentation of the episode “Bennett to Dawson in a leaky boat” from the Klondike Gold Rush History Podcast .

Rivers run through our fall series… and fish clearly run through Yukoner Dennis Zimmerman’s stream of consciousness. “I can get kind of nerdy on fishing,” explains the self-described fish and wildlife enthusiast, who proves the point in our latest Yukon Questionnaire. Dennis will hook you with a great story about Rock River—a place that many Yukoners are hard-pressed to even locate. He’ll reel you in with his close observations of local bumper stickers. And, finally, he’ll let you go with his thoughts about “The Spell of the Yukon.” You'll definitely want to catch our podcast's latest release!

The YUKON Magazine co-publisher Tammo Walter kicks off a new season of the podcast with some reflections on his recent rookie experience in the Kluane-to-Chilkat International Bike Relay. Then he shifts gears to highlight another staple event of the waning Yukon summer, the Paradise Music Festival. As usual, he’s joined by editor-in-chief Kanina Holmes to discuss the upcoming Fall issue of the magazine, which has a special theme that’s also reflected in this podcast series. Finally, Tammo shares a few clips from the episodes coming your way over the next three months.

Now the author of two books and many articles in major publications, Eva Holland was just getting started in 2012. That’s when she was offered a 10-month back-fill position with Up Here magazine. “It was the break I was waiting for,” she says, “and I spent those months in an informal feature-writing boot-camp.” In this episode, Eva chats with The YUKON Magazine’s co-publisher, Tammo Walter, about her evolution as a northern writer and what it means to “write the North.” She then reads a timeless story titled “I Found the Sweet Life,” which chronicles a week she spent among Skagway’s seasonal workers during her “boot-camp” era more than a decade ago. Originally published in Up Here , this piece also appears in Eva’s collection No Sleep ‘Til Fairbanks . "This story,” she explains, “was my first foray into the sort of immersive first-person reporting that would become my trademark.” The rest is history.

Inspired, sort of, by Karen McColl’s cover story for the 2026 Summer issue of The YUKON Magazine, our producer Mark Koepke tracks down some Whitehorse birders—and asks to record their cheerful songs.

Gravel biking may feel like a relatively new corner of cycling, but in many ways it brings the sport back to where it started: rough roads, mixed surfaces, long distances, and a little uncertainty about what comes next. With the Kluane Chilkat International Bike Relay coming up on June 20th, from Haines Junction to Haines, cycling is very much on our radar. And while KCIBR is not a gravel ride, the Yukon has more than enough rough roads, back roads, construction zones, and in-between terrain to make a gravel bike feel right at home. In this conversation from our archive, originally released in 2022, then-host Karen McColl speaks with Ian Parker about the rise of gravel biking , or, as he calls it, mixed-surface riding. They talk about why the Yukon is such a natural place for it, how gravel sits somewhere between road cycling and mountain biking, and why the best bike might simply be the one that gets you out there. A timely look back at a cycling movement that keeps gaining ground.

In temperatures below -50°C and help not available or far away everything matters. A lot. As part of Operation Nanook-Nunalivut 2026, a team of Canadian Rangers crossed more than 5,200 kilometres of Arctic wilderness by snowmobile. For 52 days they traveled along parts of the Northwest Passage where weather, equipment failure or one wrong decision can quickly into a very serious situation. Three Yukon Rangers, Maya Poirier, Philippe Brient and Dan Beaudoin, reflect on the longest Arctic patrol ever conducted by the Canadian Armed Forces. They talk about navigating in whiteout conditions, setting up tents, constant dangers, arriving in remote northern communities, and what surprised them most traveling for an extended period of time in extreme conditions. A conversation about endurance, teamwork, survival, and a part of Canada most people know little about and will never experience firsthand. All statements and opinions expressed in this episode are the personal views of the individuals involved and do not represent the official positions of the Canadian Armed Forces or the Canadian Rangers.

Asking questions is something familiar to Keith Halliday. A longtime journalist, author, consultant and close observer of the North, Keith has spent decades asking tough questions and making sense of Yukon life. But that doesn’t necessarily make the hot seat any easier. In this episode, Keith turns reflective, opinionated, and occasionally unexpected as he weighs in on the Yukon's most pressing questions, from the practical to the philosophical, in a conversation shaped by deep roots, wit, and a lifetime of paying attention.

There will be summer (even if it doesn’t feel that way yet). The YUKON Magazine co-publisher Tammo Walter kicks off the season, joined by editor-in-chief Kanina Holmes and new podcast contributor John Glynn-Morris for a look at what’s ahead. They preview a rich lineup of features—from wildfire realities to the hidden world of fungi beneath our feet and the passion behind Yukon birding. The episode also introduces Made in the Yukon, a new series spotlighting the people building, experimenting, and taking risks in the North. It’s a wide-ranging preview of the exciting content that audiences can look—and listen—forward to. A season shaped by light, curiosity, and the evolving story of the Yukon.

Each spring, northern rivers go from solid ice to flowing water. In the best-case scenario this process goes smoothly but if ice jams form, there can be trouble. We first ran this conversation with Holly Goulding, senior hydrologist with the Government of Yukon, in February 2023. Given the winter the territory just came through, it felt like the right time to bring it back. Goulding breaks down how ice, water, snow, and temperature combine to create the perfect melt or the perfect flood.

First it hurts. Then it stops. That’s when the clock starts ticking. With frostbite, time matters. It can mean the difference between recovery and loss. From Whitehorse, Yukon, surgeon Alex Poole and clinical pharmacist Josianne Gauthier share what they’ve learned treating and studying frostbite and how they pioneered the current gold-standard treatment protocol. They talk us through what’s happening beneath the skin's surface, what decisions are critical, and the fine margins that determine whether tissue survives. A closer look at a condition shaped as much by time as by temperature.

If anyone should fly through our Yukon Questionnaire, it ought to be Karen McColl. As a former editor of The YUKON Magazine and producer of this podcast, Karen has put the questionnaire to many fellow Yukoners. But, apparently, that’s not enough to guarantee lightning-fast responses when she finds herself on the wrong end of the microphone. As Karen moves on to her next adventure(s), our questionnaire is her opportunity to say farewell (for now) and let listeners know where she stands on the Yukon’s most pressing questions.

There are 20 sports at this year's Arctic Winter Games in Whitehorse. Pin trading has long been considered an unofficial sport at the AWG, so that makes 21.... And now, podcast producer Mark Koepke suggests a 22nd "sport." As he documents the final sprint in a multi-year, volunteer-led marathon to plan the circumpolar world’s biggest sporting and cultural event, Mark takes a cue from his favourite event— Arctic Sports —and talks a fine line between cooperation and competition.

"It was supposed to be a two-week workin' vacation," says musician Ryan West of his first trip to the Yukon." That was 2009. It's 2026 now, so it's been a long two weeks." One of the reasons Ryan stayed was the community—musical and otherwise—that he discovered at Whitehorse's iconic 98 Hotel . Every third Thursday of the month, he and his band The Lucky Ones now grace its cozy stage, doin' their best to fill "an unfillable fiddle-shaped hole" left by the legendary Joe Loutchan. Recorded in the kitchen/"green room" of The 98, Ryan and fellow Lucky One Ian Smith discuss their long-intertwined histories with, and mutual deep affection for, this local institution—and how it inevitably inspired a song. And when they're done talkin', you'll get to hear "The Old 98" by The Lucky Ones. We know you'll be pleased as punch. Check out the music video and look for Genesee Keevil's article about the The 98 Hotel in the spring 2026 issue of The YUKON Magazine.

Welcome to spring—and new beginnings! To kick off the first series of our revitalized podcast, The YUKON Magazine’s new publisher, Tammo Walter, steps into the Karen McColl-sized role of “host.” He catches up with the magazine’s (sort of) new editor Kanina Holmes and podcast producer Mark Koepke for a preview of the exciting content that audiences can look—and listen—forward to this season. Tammo also shares a conversation that he and his co-publisher, Manu Keggenhoff, had about the enduring mission of The YUKON Magazine.

They built their reputation playing live gigs around the North—from the Southeast Alaska State Fair, to the iconic 98 Hotel, to Folk on the Rocks. Next up, it’s opening for Tom Cochrane at his April 5 show in Whitehorse. But Cows Go Moo is no stranger to the studio, either. In May 2024, life took the band’s six teenage members down two highways (the Alaska and North Klondike) to their second recording session at Green Needle Records . In this episode, you’ll hear the Cows and hard workin’ producer Jim Holland workin’ hard to rock hard on a hard rock track that really works. Jim asked the band for everything but “more cowbell”… and they udderly delivered. The finished product is Cows Go Moo’s most recent self-composed single, “The Forgotten.” (You can call it “James Hetfield Takes a Bath with His Guitar and Amp,” if you prefer.) A story about Cows Go Moo also appears in the spring 2025 issue of The YUKON Magazine. The band was previously featured on this podcast in an separate April 2023 episode titled "Hard rock minors."

Tuxedo has black and white fur, blue eyes, and a sensitive side. He works hard and is rewarded with belly rubs, massages, and warm soup. But a day in the life of Tuxedo and his fellow Alaskan Huskies at Sky High Wilderness Ranch is more nuanced than that.
