A city of the Yukon Territory and its capital since 1953, located at kilometre 1476, just off the Alaska Highway. The city lies mainly on the western side of the Yukon River, nestled in a protected valley surrounded by Canyon Mountain(locally known as Grey Mountain) to the east, Haeckel Hill to the northwest and Golden Horn Mountain to the south. Located at the head of navigation on the Yukon River, Whitehorse grew significantly by becoming a temporary stopping point--past two major obstacles on the river, Miles Canyon and the Whitehorse Rapids--for prospectors heading for Dawson(then known as "Dawson City") during the Klondike Gold Rush Years(1897-1899). In 1900, with the completion of the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway from Skagway in Alaska, to Carcross and Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory, the community grew around the point where the railway and river met, on the western side of the Yukon River. After the gold rush, Whitehorse's population dropped, but with the help of navigation and aviation companies, the British Yukon Navigation Company building riverboats and operating them to Dawson until 1954, and the British Yukon Aviation Company transporting mail, freight and passengers, the economy was kept afloat. During World War II, Whitehorse played a significant role as a key link in the north-south transportation system, hosting the Americans and Canadians in charge of expanding the air link that was the Northwest Staging Route(a series of airfields across the Northwest), building the 2300-km Alaska Highway, or constructing the Canol Pipeline from Norman Wells, N. W. T., and an oil refinery at Whitehorse. In 1950, Whitehorse was incorporated as a city. In 1953, the territorial capital of the Yukon was moved from Dawson to Whitehorse, adding the government sector to an economy made of the mining(copper, silver and lead-zinc), tourist and oil industries. Though the mines shut down in Yukon and the White Pass and Yukon Route Railway ended its operations 2, record 5, English, - Whitehorse

Ville du Territoire du Yukon qui en est aussi la capitale depuis 1953, située au kilomètre 1476, près de la route de l'Alaska. On l'appelle communément «la ville de Whitehorse», bien qu'elle ait le statut de cité en raison de son caractère politique et historique et de l'importance de sa population. La ville s'étend surtout du côté ouest du fleuve Yukon, blottie dans une vallée protégée, entourée de la montagne Canyon (appelée «Grey» dans la région) à l'est, la colline Haeckel au nord-ouest et la montagne Golden Horn au sud. Sise là où commence la navigation sur le fleuve Yukon, Whitehorse s'est développée de façon significative en devenant un arrêt d'étape --une fois franchis les deux obstacles principaux sur le fleuve, le canyon Miles et les rapides Whitehorse-- pour les prospecteurs en route pour Dawson (alors appelée à l'américaine, «Dawson City») pendant les années de la ruée vers l'or du Klondike (1897-1899). Avec la fin de la construction du chemin de fer White Pass and Yukon Route Railway depuis Skagway (Alaska) à Carcross puis Whitehorse (Territoire du Yukon) en 1900, la communauté s'est développée au point de rencontre entre le fleuve et le chemin de fer, sur la rive ouest du fleuve Yukon. Une fois la ruée vers l'or terminée, la population de Whitehorse chute, mais avec l'aide des compagnies de navigation et d'aviation, la British Yukon Navigation Company qui construit des bateaux à aubes et en gère les opérations jusqu'à Dawson jusqu'en 1954, et la British Yukon Aviation Company qui transporte du courrier, des marchandises et des passagers, l'économie de la ville demeure viable. Au cours de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Whitehorse joue un rôle important comme point de liaison pour les opérations de transport dans l'axe nord-sud, hébergeant les Américains et les Canadiens chargés d'accroître les liaisons aériennes de la Northwest Staging Route (une série de terrains d'aviation dans le Nord-Ouest) ou de construire les 230 kilomètres de la 2, record 5, French, - Whitehorse
