Single Track to Success is a Carcross/Tagish First Nations initiative to promote wellness and reconnect youth with the land. This initiative has also boosted the local economy byway of making Carcross, YT a premier tourist stop for mountain biking trails. In addition to learning how to persevere when the work gets hard, the youth/crew members learn new skills that will help them acquire employment, as well as in life in general. The youth take pride in how they’ve made the Montana Mountain trails with the least environmental impact as possible.

This is done through a variety of approaches with the aim to foster wellbeing and positive Indigenous Identity. Music is a tool that Davis uses to pass on cultural knowledge with regular drum nights.
