NOTE TO CUSTOMERS:  We have been informed by a helpful canoeist that there is a printing error in our Big Salmon book. The map page (page 38) right before the Carmacks page is a duplicate of the following page (39) instead of being the correct map. If you have purchased one of our Big Salmon books, please check and see if this is the case in your copy (because of the way they are printed, half of them are correct and half of them are missing that page). If you have one of the faulty books, please let me know by email - This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. - and I will email you the corrected page.  We apologize profusely for any confusion or inconvenience this may have caused.

Rivers North Publications is a small, family operated publishing company based out of Prince George, B.C. Canada. RNP continues to grow as the popularity of our guide books increases and suggestions from readers help to create a product that best fits the needs of river travelers.

We are continually updating the maps, historical and general information. Mike began travelling on and researching northern rivers in 1977, beginning with a trip from Marsh Lake down the Yukon River to the Bering Sea. Mike's wife, Jocelyn became his primary canoeing partner in 1980 and three years later formed the publishing company.  When we began producing maps in 1983, we combined the use of U.S. army air photos from the Second World War along with numerous river surveys to produce 1:50,000 scale maps before government topographic maps of that scale were available. Originally begun as a service to river travelers in the more remote locations, we have financed all of our publications personally using no government or corporate assistance nor any advertising in our products.

Thank you and we hope you will continue to choose our products both for your safety and enjoyment when traveling Yukon rivers.

US CUSTOMERS:  DUE TO THE CANCELLATION OF THE DE MINIMUS EXEMPTION, WE WILL NOT BE SHIPPING HARD COPY BOOKS TO THE US.  YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO PURCHASE ANY OF OUR EBOOKS.  THE PAPERWORK AND COSTS INVOLVED IN MEETING THE TARIFF REQUIREMENTS ARE MORE THAN WE CAN HANDLE AS A SMALL HOME BASED BUSINESS. 

RIVER NOTES:

There is a recent, very large slide above Lake Laberge on the Yukon River that made the channel a great deal narrower at about Mile 45.  Use caution and be aware of changes in the landscape.

Please note that the boat locks at the foot of Marsh Lake are closed until further notice due to flood damage.
