With a population of over 35,000 (recently surpassed 40,000 for the first time since the Klondike gold rush) , the Yukon is the smallest and westernmost of Canada’s three federal territories which includes the Northwest Territories and Nunavut. Famous in history as the location of the Klondike Gold Rush, the Yukon of today is a unique and majestic destination for nature lovers to visit, and rich with the cultural history of the 14 First Nations who reside in the territory.
