the people that discovered it
The Yukon Gold Rush began in Bonanza Creek, a tributary of the Klondike River in the Yukon Territory of Canada, in 1896. Gold was discovered there by George Carmack and his partners, which sparked a massive influx of prospectors and fortune seekers, known as "stampeders." This event led to a significant migration to the region, marking a pivotal moment in Canadian history and the development of the Yukon.
