Welcome to CarmacksCarmacks village is right on the Yukon River and is the home of the Little Salmon/Carmacks First Nation, a Northern Tutchone-speaking people. It is the site of one of the four bridges over the Yukon River. This village was named after one of the gold discoverers in 1896, George Washington Carmacks. The area around Carmacks has abundant mineral resources, including coal, copper, and gold. Various mining activities are taking place on mineral sites around Carmacks. The reason to stop at Carmack is because of the excellent Tage Cho Hudan Interpretive Centre. Existing as a rest stop even before the Klondike Gold Rush, on November 1, 1984 Carmacks became incorporated as a village. The community has been very stable, with a population hovering around 450. The Carmacks Recreation Centre is at the east end of River Drive between the nursing station and visitor centre, and is a community focal point for youth. |
