The Selkirk First Nation is made up of Northern Tutchone people known as the Hucha Hudan people or Flatland people. They are located in the village of Pelly Crossing on the Klondike Highway in the Central Yukon.
There is so much to see and experience in the land of the Selkirk First Nation! With the help of our friends at Indigenous Yukon, we’ve put together a list of unforgettable sights and sounds that celebrate the culture and heritage of this place.
Land ownership and management was a major reason that the Yukon Final and Self-Government Agreements were negotiated. These agreements give direction on who owns the land and how decisions about land are made.
With implementing their Final and Self-Government Agreements, Yukon First Nation governments are also working towards becoming self-sustaining. With this in mind, many First Nations have created arms-length First Nation development corporations.
