Ni'iinlii'njik Territorial Park, Nature reserve in northern Yukon, Canada.
The Fishing Branch River flows through a system of underground limestone caves, maintaining water movement throughout winter due to geothermal activity.
The Vuntut Gwitchin First Nation collaborated with Yukon government in 1999 to establish this 6,500 square kilometer territorial park.
The Vuntut Gwitchin people named the river Ni'iinlii Njik, marking the location where salmon complete their reproductive cycle each year.
Access requires helicopter transportation from Dawson City, with accommodations available at Bear Cave Mountain Camp in four timber cabins.
The unfrozen river attracts up to fifty grizzly bears during autumn salmon runs, creating one of North America's largest seasonal bear gatherings.
