Range overview
The Yukon Ranges mountain range is located in northwestern Canada, stretching for hundreds of miles across the Yukon Territory and into Alaska. The range has a rich history, with evidence of human habitation dating back over 10,000 years. Notable peaks within the range include Mount Logan, the highest peak in Canada, and Mount Saint Elias, the second-highest peak in both Canada and the United States. Other significant peaks include Mount Lucania and Mount Steele. The range is home to many significant rivers, including the Yukon River, which is one of the longest in North America, and the Alsek River, which is known for its whitewater rapids and stunning scenery. The region's hydrology also includes numerous glaciers, including the Kluane Icefield, and the range's geology is notable for its high concentration of minerals, including gold and copper. Interesting facts about the range include that it is home to several species of large mammals, including grizzly bears, caribou, and Dall sheep, and that it was a key location for the Klondike Gold Rush in the late 1800s.
