The Northern Lights have seen queer sights,
But the queerest they ever did see
Was that night on the marge of Lake Lebarge
I cremated Sam McGee.

“KLONDIKE” NAME
The Klondike got its name from the First Nation
word “Thron Diuck” meaning “Hammer Water”.
Early settlers had difficulty with the
pronunciation and thus it became KLON-DIKE.
