Canadian territory, home to the Klondike gold rush of 1897-99 (5)

I believe the answer is:

yukon

(Other definitions for yukon that I've seen before include "Klondike region of Canada" , "River in northern Canada" , "Canadian territory adjoining Alaska" , "North American territory" , "mineral-rich area" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
