Welcome to Keno CityKeno City is a small community in the Yukon at the end of the Silver Trail highway. Keno City is located at Mile 69.1 of the Silver Trail, Yukon Highway 11. Keno City has also developed some tourism-based businesses. Attraction is the Keno Mining Museum with an extensive collection dedicated to the history of mining in the Yukon from the early 1900's until the present as well as the signpost on the top of Keno Hill showing distances to places around the world. Rich silver and lead ore deposits were found on Keno Hill in 1919, and since then the population of the community has fluctuated in response to the mining activity in the area. Keno City was named after the gambling game Keno popular in mining camps at the turn of the 20th century. The 2004 Kim Barlow album Luckyburden is about Keno City. Two tracks are recorded live at the Keno City Snackbar. |
