Strat Chat Premier: Layers of Yukon History - TAS 310

Welcome to the debut episode of “Strat Chat,” where we dig deep—one place, many stories, across time. This week, we peel back the layers of the Yukon. In Segment 1, journey back to the Ice Age and discover how glaciers shaped the land and set the stage for the region’s future. Segment 2 explores the lives and cultures of the Indigenous peoples who called the Yukon home long before European arrival, highlighting their resilience and connection to the land. Finally, Segment 3 rushes into the late 19th century as we relive the excitement, chaos, and legacy of the Klondike Gold Rush. Join us as we unearth the stories that make the Yukon a truly remarkable place, one stratum at a time.
