Łutsël K'é First Nation buys Frontier fishing lodge
Just in time for its 60th anniversary, Łutsël K'é Frontier Fishing Lodge will become the property of the local Dene band.

Corey Myers, the new general manager, announced via Facebook that the Witherspoon family, which took over the lodge in 1990, would be selling the lodge to the Łutsël K'é First Nation.

"After 29 years of ownership, the Witherspoon family has decided that it's time to pass the reins," he wrote.
 

Myers said the sale would "enable the refurbishment of Frontier's physical facilities" and update the lodge's tour packages "to include and reflect the passion, history and culture of the local people."

"The work is just beginning, but ... the whole team is enthusiastically optimistic about this incredible opportunity," Myers wrote.

The Łutsël K'é lodge is one of the N.W.T.'s best known fishing destinations. Located just a few kilometres from the fly-in community of just over 300, the lodge offers multi-day, guided fishing tours for $2,500 and up.
