Comments

(en) Gold was discovered in Dawson in 1896, triggering the Klondike Gold Rush. By 1898, no less than 40,000 people called Dawson home. When the gold ran out, the population immediately fell to 8,000 in 1899 and 5,000 in 1902. Humiliatingly, the settlement was unable to maintain its official designation, and today its full name is "The Town of the City of Dawson", population 1,319. Thanks to the town's assortment of hundred-year-old buildings and spectacular natural setting, the main industry today is tourism.
