As the Yukon marks its 125th year since joining Confederation, the Government of Yukon’s longstanding Yukon Gold Explorer’s Passport contest has gone digital for 2023.
Highlighting the many cultural centres, museums and other attractions throughout the Yukon, participants are encouraged to visit any (or all!) of the 38 featured sites and take a photo of the contest poster on display at each location.
Using the QR code on the poster, each photo can then be submitted as an entry for a chance to win three top prizes of Klondike placer gold and other items. Entries can be submitted until August 31, 2023, with prizes awarded in September.
Contest rules, entry forms and a full list of the featured sites are available at TravelYukon.com/yukongoldpassport
