Depuis la fin du Tertiaire [la région du Parc national et réserve de parc national Kluane] a subi plusieurs épisodes glaciaires et interglaciaires. Cependant, dans les principales vallées, la plupart des formes de relief glaciaire (surtout roche de fond râclée par les glaces, et plaines alluviales proglaciaires) se sont constituées pendant la glaciation de Kluane, qui date de 29 000 à 12 500 ans, et la déglaciation ultérieure.
