Yukon Transportation Museum Sharing stories of ingenuity, adventure, devastation and joy through the lens of Yukon transportation We offer rental space, tours, giftshop and outreach.

Transportation shows us how and why people move themselves, their possessions and their ideas over the landscape, and we explore these stories and how it has shaped the Yukon as we know it today. At the Yukon Transportation Museum you will see, read, and hear about the rich history of Yukon transportation through lively stories and the interesting, detailed and surprising size of displays.

If you visited the museum this summer, you probably noticed our interpreter Claire's beautiful drawings on the door that leads from the gift shop to the exhibit yard. This canoe fisherman was one of our favorites 🎣

Sadly, Claire is taking her artistic eye back to Calgary later this week for her last year of school -- thanks to Young Canada Works for its support of her position and Canadian heritage organizations.

Thanks to the team at Parks Canada (especially Kyle, Oliver and Braeden) for hosting the YTM crew for a fascinating tour of the S.S. Klondike worksite this morning. The scope of this restoration project is incredible! We learned a ton about boatbuilding, ship saws, boosting boilers and complex problem solving.

Come see one of the Klondike's lifeboats on display in our main exhibit hall -- we're open Wednesday to Sunday, 10 to 6, through the end of August.
