Our friends at North of Ordinary ran a survey about what's best in the Yukon. We're thrilled that Bean North came in third in the following two categories: Most Environmentally Friendly Yukon Company & Best Display of Community Leadership (Corporate). Definitely read the fifth anniverary edition of North of Ordinary and turn to page 40 and 41 to see best of the Yukon.
