In the know

The Klondike Gold Rush began in 1896 when gold was discovered in the Klondike region of Yukon, Canada. News of the discovery soon spread and Skagway became a key gateway to the goldfields as it provided access to the Chilkoot and White Pass trails, two of the main routes to the Klondike.
