Moosehide Village
Moosehide (Hän: ''Ëdhä Dädhëchan'') is a traditional village of the Trʼondëk Hwëchʼin First Nation in the Canadian territory of Yukon between about 1906 and the early 1960s. Located near a traditional salmon-fishing ground, Moosehide was first occupied about 9,000 years ago. Starting in the mid-1800s, and accelerating the Klondike Gold Rush, European settles arrived in the area and began to settle in and around Dawson City. The Tr'ondëk Hwëch'in were forced to relocate, first just to the south of Dawson and in 1897 to Moosehide.

Former Villages In Yukon
A former is an object, such as a template, gauge or cutting die, which is used to form something such as a boat's hull. Typically, a former gives shape to a structure that may have complex curvature. A former may become an integral part of the finished structure, as in an aircraft fuselage, or it may be removable, being used in the construction process and then discarded or re-used. Aircraft formers Formers are used in the construction of aircraft fuselage, of which a typical fuselage has a series from the nose cone to the empennage, typically perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the aircraft. The primary purpose of formers is to establish the shape of the fuselage and reduce the column length of stringers to prevent instability. Formers are typically attached to longerons, which support the skin of the aircraft. The "former-and-longeron" technique (also called stations and stringers) was adopted from boat construction, and was typical of light aircraft built until th ...
