Wapusk Adventures
Wapusk Adventures, founded by Dave Daley in 2001, is an Indigenous-owned experience in Churchill.

Guests experience the “I-did-a-mile” sled track and an immersive presentation on the heritage of the Red River Métis Nation.

Founded by Florence Hamilton, whose journey to reconnect with her Sayisi Dene heritage, inspired the mission of educating guests through interpretive storytelling.
