Here is 8 interesting facts that I found online:

-It is the 5th largest river in North America

-It is the longest river in Alaska(I said longest! not nessessarly the largest!)

-Yukon River drainage basin is 25% bigger than Texas

-Yukon actually means Great River

-Volcanic activity may have blocked or at least altered the Yukon River

-The Yukon River has 4 bridges that carry vehicles.

-The Yukon River is home to one of the longest salmon runs in the world

-In order to travel so long on the Yukon, the fish must have fat to burn off, making the Yukon fish known for their especcially rich and oily meat

Hope this helps!
