The first five people to correctly identify the picture as the SS Klondike were John Amrhein, Kamran Jafry, Chris Bookless, Marcel A. Lecker and Aaron Mcleod.

The SS Klondike was the name of two sternwheelers, the second now a national historic site located in Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada. Both ran freight between Whitehorse and Dawson City along the Yukon River in 1921-1936 and 1936-1950, respectively.

The SS Klondike I was built in 1921 and had the distinction of having 50 percent more capacity than a regular sternwheeler, while still having the shallow draft and meeting the size requirements in order to travel down the Yukon River. The SS Klondike I had a cargo capacity of 270 metric tonnes without having to push a barge.

The SS Klondike I ran aground in 1936. The British-Yukon Navigation Company (a subsidiary of the White Pass and Yukon Route railway company) salvaged much of the ship and cannibalized the wreckage to build the SS Klondike II the following year.

The SS Klondike II carried freight until 1950. Due to the construction of a highway connecting Dawson City and Whitehorse, many sternwheelers were decommissioned. In an attempt to save the SS Klondike II, it was converted into a cruise ship. The venture shut down in 1955 due to lack of interest, and the SS Klondike was beached in the Whitehorse shipyards.

The ship was donated to Parks Canada and was gradually restored until 1966, when city authorities agreed to move the ship to its present location, then part of a squatter's residence. The task required three bulldozers, eight tons of Palmolive soap, a crew of 12 men, and three weeks to complete. Greased log rollers eased the process.

On 1 July 1981, the Canadian government declared the SS Klondike II a national historic site, and it is now open during the summer as a tourist attraction.
