About this listen
When you think of Canada, deserts probably aren’t the first thing that come to mind. Yet hidden across the prairies and the far north are landscapes of rolling sand, wind-sculpted ridges, and ecosystems that defy expectations. In this episode of The Tilted Planet Podcast, Jack takes you on a journey through Canada’s hidden deserts — from the remote Athabasca Sand Dunes in Saskatchewan, to the tiny yet otherworldly Carcross Desert in Yukon, and the vast, ever-shifting Great Sand Hills.
Discover how glaciers, wind, and time have shaped these unique landscapes, the life that thrives within them, and the cultural and scientific stories they hold. Whether it’s rare orchids clinging to golden dunes or ancient patterns chronicled in moving sand, these Canadian deserts reveal a quiet power and subtle motion often overlooked.
Step off the beaten path, feel the sand shift beneath your feet, and explore a side of Canada that will surprise, inspire, and reshape the way you see the world!
