Stay at the Churchill Northern Studies Centre, an active research facility located 23 km outside of town where the northern reach of the boreal forest meets the southern extent of arctic tundra.  Interact with scientists working on a wide variety of projects.  Accommodations are basic, with dormitory style rooms (each sleeping between 4 - 8 people during peak season) and shared washrooms.
