Parks and Community Development
Healthy Yukoners are reminded that they may go to local parks and playgrounds to get fresh air and play as long as they keep safely spaced from anyone who’s not in their household. The City of Whitehorse continues to follow the recommendations from the Yukon Chief Medical Officer of Health.
Cutting a Yukon tree can be an enjoyable way to experience our forests this holiday season. Forest Management Branch and the City have teamed up to identify areas within and outside Whitehorse where households can cut up to two trees.
Visit whitehorse.ca/trees for maps of allowable cutting areas, guidelines and a description of tree types.
