Countless explorers have come to the Arctic regions, many attracted by the rich and unusual web of life that makes life in the Far North so unique. On this Arctic excursion, you’ll explore the science of winter ecology as you study the frozen tundra, the great boreal forests and the Hudson Bay. You’ll learn about the traditions and heritage of indigenous cultures of the region (including a chance to sleep overnight in an igloo!). And, you’ll have the unique opportunity to see the Aurora Borealis. Journeying by train, bus and even snowshoe, you’ll appreciate what makes the Arctic so special and important to protect.
Preparatory curriculum explores the cultures of northern Manitoba and the winter ecology of the boreal forest and tundra ecosystems.
