Everything about The Klondike River totally explained
The
Klondike River is a
tributary of the
Yukon River in
Canada that gave its name to the
Klondike Gold Rush. The Klondike River has its source in the
Ogilvie Mountains and flows into the Yukon River at
Dawson City.
Its name comes from the
Hän word
Tr'ondëk meaning
hammerstone, which were used to hammer down stakes used to set
salmon nets.
Gold was discovered in tributaries of the Klondike River in
1896 and is still being mined today.
In
Jack London's story "
A Relic of the Pliocene" (
Collier's Weekly,
1901), this river was mentioned as "Reindeer River". (See
Reindeer Lake.)
