CANADA ~ Vuntut National Park - UNESCO Tentative list ~

... Great Canadian National Park nr 15👍... one of the most remote and least visited NP... there are no facilities or services to assist visitors... this park is a destination for experienced, self-sufficient adventurers.... but those who make the effort, will encounter a wilderness adventure unlike any other, in a place pristine and unspoiled... this land is tied to a vibrant First Nation culture and home to one of the great natural wonders of the world, the annual migration of almost 200,000 caribou... also home to grizzly bears, wolves, wolverines, raptors, and many small mammals...  half a million birds make the wetland their homes a year...  a true arctic wilderness....with nice selection of stamps... Thanks a lot Jason!【ツ】

Vuntut National Park was established in 1995 as part of the Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation Final Land Claim Agreement. Vuntut, which means "among the lakes" in the Gwitchin language, encompasses 4,345. sq. km of wilderness in the northwestern corner of the Yukon Territory above the Arctic Circle.

This National Park is adjacent to another Canadian National Park, Ivvavik National Park. Also, the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge lies just across the Canada–US border in Alaska.
