About the 'Dance with Caribou' Expeditions:

Far and away our most popular wildlife trip, join us this early autumn at a comfortable photo camp in the remote mainland Arctic of Nunavut, Canada.

Our wildlife camps typically offer comfortable & catered tent-camp accommodations including private sleeping tents, dining & shower facilities.

As our photo camps are usually set up on an active wildlife water crossing for caribou and musk-oxen, often times such animals are seen right in the camp yard.  Sometimes caribou stay around for weeks at a time - and these  characters are affectionately known as 'yardboo'!

 Depending on the site, we also offer an array of equipment on site such as boats & motors, canoes & kayaks and various qulaity camping equipment, to enhance the expedition and seek out wildlife. 

On occasion, we set up and offer ground tent 'spike camps' to maximize wildlife viewing, and to explore new areas.

We offer a one-week trip on the 'Dance with Caribou' expeditions, with the option to extend two-weeks at a reduced rate.  Once at the camp, we offer a choice of daily escorted and interpretive programs that include wildlife exposure, native & natural history, and archaeology.

So come join us to experience true immersion with the late summer & early autumn mixing period of the cows, calves and bulls of the Beverly, Bathurst & Ahiak barren-ground caribou. These are the largest and least human-influenced of the Nunavut herds.  We will likely encounter a steady source of singles and small groups of grazing caribou nearly every day during the 'mixing' period leading up to the mating period and southbound migration.
