Whitehorse, Yukon - Canada

19 Months Ago
Whitehorse population 23,276 as of the 2011 Census is the capital and largest city of Yukon,
Canada and the largest city in northern Canada.
It was incorporated in 1950 and is located at km
1426 on the Alaska Highway in southern Yukon.
Whitehorse's downtown and River dale areas occupy both shores of the Yukon River, which originates in British Columbia and meets the Bering Sea in Alaska.
The city was named after the White Horse Rapids for their resemblance to the mane of a white horse, near Miles Canyon, before the river was dammed.
Because of the city's location in the Whitehorse valley,
the climate is milder than other comparable northern communities.
At this latitude winter days are short and summer
days have 20 hours of daylight
