Yukon Field Force Graves at Fort Selkirk, Yukon
When the Klondike Gold Rush began, the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP) in the Yukon were soon overwhelmed, and the Yukon Field Force (YFF) was formed to assist them. In June 1900, with the gold rush largely over, the Yukon Field Force was recalled, leaving behind their buildings, and the graves of 1 member in Dawson City, and 3 members in Fort Selkirk.
