Bears live in the Dawson region. Our daily activities usually keep them away from the camp. You may encounter them, however, and guests must use caution. Bears are usually discouraged from a camp, if they are not rewarded for their visit by food, garbage or other attractants. Garbage is collected daily from the campsites and feeding wildlife is prohibited.
