      Fort Selkirk lies about a dayโ€™s paddle ahead. The oldest European settlement in the Yukon, Fort Selkirk was established as a fur trading post by Robert Campbell of the Hudson Bay Company in 1848. Today, what remains of the town is a Yukon Territorial Historic Site, and is home to a few summer residents from the local Selkirk First Nation. Weโ€™ll plan to spend at least an evening here here, enjoying the hospitality of Fort Selkirkโ€™s present-day caretakers. Beyond, the river is quiet and characterized by high bluffs and large tributaries, including the Stewart and White River, which join the river at stunning viewpoints. Most of the camping will be on gravel bars and sandy islands, with a few visits to old cabins and historic sites. (Overnight accommodation in wilderness campsites)
