    The S. S. Keno, today located at the Waterfront Park, was built in 1922 and was part of the sternwheelers fleeted that operated along the Yukon River and lakes – especially during the gold rush. These boats were able to navigate through the shallow waters to transport ore like gold, silver, lead, and zinc. The keno carried more than 9,000 tons of ore in 1938 from the mining area at Mayo Landing.

    The ship was transported to Dawson City in 1960 and you can explore the sternwheeler during a guided tour. Tickets are available at the Visitor Information Centre.
