Artist in Residence
Melissa Naef has been selected as the Tombstone Artist in Residence for 2025. A Klondike-based, photography-driven artist, Melissa draws inspiration from her environment and community. With her Swiss heritage and Northern Canadian upbringing, her work delves into themes of identity, relationships and the very essence of home. Through analogue and alternative photographic techniques, she crafts intimate works that explore the connections between land, community and materiality.

To celebrate International Biodiversity Day, we launched a contest through iNaturalist. iNaturalist is an online community science platform for recording and sharing biodiversity observations. It helps connect people to nature while advancing biodiversity science and conservation.
How it works
During the month of June, we'll feature a biodiversity hotspot each week on our Facebook page. Throughout the summer, visit as many of these hot spots as you can and record your observations on iNaturalist.
- Learn about hotspot #1: Engineer Creek
- Learn about hotspot #2: Watson Lake
- Learn about hotspot #3: Five Mile Lake
- Learn about hotspot #4: Congdon Creek
How to enter
- Send an email to [email protected] with your iNaturalist name, location of your observation and species you observed.
- Your name will be entered into a draw for a prize for each location that you made an observation.
- 1 name from each location will be drawn on August 25 to give you time to visit these biodiversity hot spots throughout the camping season.
Some campgrounds and recreation sites are serviced through the winter. Remember the following when visiting Yukon Parks in the winter:
- Keep motorized vehicles off trails.
- Do not disturb ski tracks.
- Pick up after your pets and keep them under control.
- Bring your own firewood if you plan to have a fire.
The winter program has ended for the 2024-2025 season. Check back here in the fall for 2025-2026 winter services.
