Depictions of the Klondike Gold Rush (1896–1899) in fiction. It was a migration by an estimated 100,000 prospectors to the Klondike region of Yukon, in north-western Canada. Gold was discovered there by local miners on August 16, 1896; when news reached Seattle and San Francisco the following year, it triggered a stampede of prospectors. Some became wealthy, but the majority went in vain. It has been immortalized in films, literature, and photographs.
