The vast quiet of the Yukon was shattered in 1897 when the lure of gold brought tens of thousands to the Klondike. Many died, more left, and some even stayed. Today, the Yukon is still a vast wilderness, and the treasures are still there for hunters willing to put in the work. It’s a place where bison still roam among grizzlies. You can hunt polar bears there, too, though only six tags are allocated annually.
