Great opportunity to learn how to judge the annuli on a sheep! Same idea as tree rings on a tree, just a little further away 🔎

Curious about how to age rams - or want to brush up?

Join us for a casual afternoon at the Yukon Wildlife Preserve on Sunday, June 1 from 1-4 pm. We'll be set up at the thinhorn sheep exhibit with spotting scopes and a group of women keen to learn and share.

No experience needed-just bring your curiosity (and binoculars if you've got them). Whether you hunt, hike, or are just curious, this is a good excuse to get outside and connect.

Mention you're with Band Together at the gate for 10% off admission (per person, just self-identify before paying).

All women welcome. Kids too.

I have taken groups on this same hike twice now- one time there was multiple wasp stings and we got off the trail for a bit. The other, we had to cross a flooding stream multiple times to even get going down the path. The snapshots in time are always nice, but there’s usually a whole story behind it, making you think “ you just had to be there.” 😎

Lookin to learn about packin a pony?! 🐴

Join us for a backcountry horsepacking clinic May 30-31st!

We're excited to invite you to our upcoming public clinic — a hands-on experience designed to introduce you to the fundamentals of backcountry horsemanship and horsepacking.

Friday Evening: Introduction to Horsepacking

Start the weekend by learning the basics! Our team will guide you through essential backcountry skills, including knot tying, gear preparation, and how to safely and efficiently pack one of our steady, mountain-trained horses.

Saturday: Hands-On Packing & Horsemanship

Bring your own horse or work with one of ours! With support from our experienced instructors (each with over 15 plus years in the field), you'll get practical experience packing a horse and refining your skills.
We’ll also do a demonstration on how we train our young horses to become reliable partners in the mountains.

Whether you're new to horsepacking or looking to build your confidence, this clinic is a great way to learn in a supportive, professional environment.

Fly Fish and Stretch🎏🧘🏽‍♂️Join us June 29 for a day of fly fishing and shoreline yoga 🎣 We all know fishing can test our patience, so what better way to get grounded, centered and in the right frame of mind for the day than with some breathwork, stretching and a meditation. Whether you’re a seasoned pro or someone who has wanted to to learn, this trip is for you. Grayling are one of the most fun species to chase in the North, and their willing nature makes them a great choice for those who like action. Their beautiful colouration and tendency to jump when hooked, coupled with the spectacular places in which they live, make a day of grayling fishing one to remember, and you are sure to end the day feeling grounded and peaceful. Good grayling fishing can be found around the Yukon; time of year and river conditions will determine the river we choose to fish. *. limited seats available - DM for more info.
