1 LOCATION AND SIZE. The Yukon Territory in Canada's northwest covers 186,660 square miles (483,450 square kilometers). The perimeters of this mountainous territory form a rough triangle bordered on the east by the Northwest Territories, on the south by British Columbia, and on the west by the US state of Alaska.n 1898, the Yukon Territory was officially established, and Dawson City became the capital of the province. As gold resources became depleted and prospectors left to seek their fortunes at other locations, the territory's growth came to a screeching halt.
