Woodcutter’s Blanket is housed in a piece of Yukon history at Second Avenue and Strickland Street, in Whitehorse. Registered as the Widdershin cabin and often called “the moose” (referring to the faux animals that adorn its exterior), the small log building dates back to the 1930s. The two moose were affixed above the main entrance when it housed the taxidermy business and have made it one of the city’s most photographed buildings.

Working extensively with the owner and brewer, we designed the addition to the cocktail bar that included a two level brewery, and up to 60 more seats in a contemporary new space and patio.
