MOSAIC
Old Crow’s soul
Photography by Ryan Carter with text by Larry Frolick
No roads lead into or out of Old Crow, a riverside hamlet of wood houses and the Yukon’s most northern
community. Three hundred people live here, but you see only a few at a time. The rest are out hunting stragglers from
the Porcupine caribou herd or fishing salmon, trapping marten,
curing meat or chopping firewood.
“I got sled dogs to feed,” says Kenny Tetlichi, a Gwich’in
entrepreneur who runs a guest house when he’s not hunting
or fishing. “You got to enjoy running dogs to do all this.”
He’s chopping 100 kilograms of fresh salmon, which will
last his team for three weeks.
