Our friends from the center of the universe, I mean Toronto, have done up a nice little post on some of the top 5 things to do when visiting Yellowknife.
Ruth Bowen, a Toronto Star freelance writer, wrote about Yellowknife as she experienced it and categorized her article by her top five things. Those categories include five things for free, five ways to see the aurora, five other things to do, five places to shop and five places to eat.
I think Ms. Bowen did a fine job at capturing some of the best in Yellowknife. Below is an example of one of the categories and all of them can be found here.
