Grand Forks, Yukon


Grand Forks was a town and former community at the confluence of Bonanza Creek and Eldorado Creek in the Canadian territory of Yukon. First settled about 1896, it became the second-largest settlement in the Klondike. With approximately 10,000 people living in or by Grand Forks during the Klondike Gold Rush, it was the only community besides Dawson City to have a municipal government. The Grand Forks Hotel was a roadhouse here during the gold rush.
Nothing of Grand Forks remains today.
