Snafu, Yukon

This community was christened after everyone’s favourite military acronym—Situation Normal: All Fouled Up—by the U.S. military while they were building the Alaska highway. We’re not sure exactly what situation the military was referring to at the time, but Snafu served as one of two forest fire crew camps in the Yukon in the ’50s. It’s now a campground surrounded by lakes and a popular destination for canoe trips.
