It is hard for a person to be immune to the romance and tragedy that was the Yukon Gold Rush. This is one of the most turbulent periods in the history of Canada and America. People came here by the shipload from all over the world and from as far away as South Africa because of their belief that gold was easily available here. Most people think that the only thing left of this period is the occasional gold prospector’s cabin in the wilderness near the Yukon River however the real legacy of this period is the economic development of a large geographical area including Western Canada, Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.

You can get a good feel of this tragic yet fascinating period of history if you visit a prospector’s cabin, many of which dot the banks of the scenic Yukon River. The people who stayed in them were mostly trying to escape the poverty caused by bank collapses in America. However there were a great many adventurers amongst them as well. These were people who did not want to miss out on the opportunity to get some of the precious metal. After all, gold was rumored to be available in profusion.
