We want this site to be a celebration of all things Tåîchô. Our traditional lands are a vast area of boreal forests, waterways, and tundra stretching from the northern shores of Great Slave Lake to almost touch the southern shores of Great Bear Lake in the Northwest Territories of Canada. From the borders of Nunavut in the east towards the Mackenzie River in the west, our land is rich in wildlife and other resources.
All Winter Roads in the Tlicho are now CLOSED for the season.
In determining the necessity of closing the winter road, the Department conducts an analysis that includes, public safety, existing road conditions, current and forecasted weather conditions, overflow on creeks, portages and lakes, adequate snow cover on portages and other factors that affect the environment. For further information on Northwest Territories Highways and Winter Roads, please follow the link. http://www.dot.gov.nt.ca/_live/pages/wpPages/roadConditions.aspx
