to website Yukon Photographers: The Gold Rush Era, 1897-1900 Photographers
have been visiting the Yukon since U.S. Army Lieutenant Schwatka travelled
down the Yukon River in 1883. After the discovery of gold on Bonanza Creek
in 1896, many commercial photographers travelled to Dawson City, photographing
the journey and establishing studios along the way. Many of the stampeders
also had small roll-film cameras as part of their outfits. The photographers
featured here were in the Yukon just before or during the gold rush and
are only some of those that photographed the Klondike gold rush.
