Old Crow, First Nations settlement in northern Yukon, Canada
Located on the Porcupine River, Old Crow stands as the northernmost community in Yukon, with a population of 236 residents across 13.51 square kilometers.
Archaeological findings at Bluefish Caves and Old Crow Flats reveal human presence in the area through modified animal bones dating back 25,000 to 40,000 years.
The Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation maintains traditional practices, including muskrat trapping and dependence on the Porcupine caribou herd for sustenance.
Access to Old Crow requires air transportation through Old Crow Airport, as no permanent roads connect the settlement to other Yukon communities.
The settlement operates on a microgrid system combining diesel generators with a solar plant to provide energy for the remote northern community.
