Grand Forks Hotel
The Grand Forks Hotel was a prominent roadhouse during the Klondike Gold Rush, situated near Dawson City in the Yukon region of Canada.
==Background==
In 1897 large amounts of gold were discovered in the Yukon, prompting huge numbers of prospectors to travel to the remote region, an event known as the Klondike Gold Rush. Belinda Mulrooney, a small-time businesswoman, arrived in Dawson City that year, intending to import goods and establish her own enterprises.〔Grey, pp.107–109.〕 She established a restaurant and a shop in the city and a business building homes for the immigrant prospectors.〔Grey, pp.112, 115.〕 Mulrooney began to investigate opportunities outside Dawson City, along the creeks where the gold was being mined and decided that the spot where the Eldorado Creek met the Bonanza Creek would be an ideal place for a roadhouse hotel.〔Grey, p.115.〕
