Clean, tight, unmarked; some wear near upper spine extreme; otherwise spine straight and uncreased; appears unread; Millennia of experience living off the land have endowed Gwitchin with an intimate knowledge of the geography and resources in, what we now know as, the Dempster Highway landscape. The words of Gwitchin Elders tell us about the past, provide guidelines for the present, and prompt us to think about the future. Here are some of their stories of life in Takudh (Dugoo) country, the area now traversed by the Yukon portion of the Dempster Highway."
