We’re very excited to have exclusive access to all of Aylmer Lake, Clinton -Colden Lake and the rivers that run in and out of these waters. That means that we bring you to a premier location that is explored only by our small groups.
We bring our guests to the same locations as Ernest Thompson Seton film crews travel to when they retracted Mr Setons exploration on 1907. There’s just so much wildlife activity here. Between the Muskox, the barrenground bears, the arctic peregrine or the hundreds of baby loons, and the many migrating and shore birds, this place is full of life.
It is way more than just a vacation, it’s a life-changing experience. Very few people have experienced the wonder of this Canadian barrenlands landscape. Seeing these animals that are found often only on the arctic barrelands will more than fulfill any bucket-list experience. Discovering the arctic barrenlands of the surrounding Aylmer Lake Lodge environment gives you a life-long connection to the land like you will have never experienced before.
Generally we have two types of people that look at our trips: those who have never been to the Arctic and those who want to go back. Our guides love what they do and where they are located at, and they come back year after year because they can’t get enough of the Northwest Territories Arctic barrenlands.
The Canadian Northwest Territories barrenlands Arctic is one of the last true wildernesses left and we want to help make your Canadian Arctic dreams become a memory.
