This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Keno Hill, Yukon. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Keno Hill.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Keno Hill is a settlement in Yukon, Canada. It is classified as a large city. Keno Hill is located at 63.9093°N, 135.3018°W.
Keno Hill stands as a rugged sentinel perched within Sourdough Hill, defining a landscape where the earth rises in sharp, weathered relief against the northern sky. It lies 45.8 km north-east of Mayo, YT (from Mayo, YT: bearing 39°T), and is situated 5.3 km east-south-east of Calumet. The terrain here holds a stark, mineral clarity, particularly during the long evenings when the light thins and turns the rocky slopes a bruised, metallic purple. Nearby, the stillness of Christal Lake offers a cool, reflective counterpoint to the steep incline of the rise, while the South McQuesten River winds through the lower reaches of the basin some distance away. The air carries a crisp, ancient weight, devoid of humidity and sharp enough to make every inhalation feel like a deliberate act. Extraction shaped the bones of Keno Hill, leaving behind a legacy of deep shafts and the heavy, rusted remnants of machinery that once hummed with the ambition of the earth’s hidden wealth. The economy has shifted away from the frantic pace of the early silver rushes, yet the ground itself retains the character of a working landscape, scarred and reclaimed by the slow crawl of subarctic scrub. Life here moves with a deliberate caution, dictated by the transition of the seasons and the physical demands of a steep, unforgiving geography. Men and women have long looked to these hills not for comfort, but for the hard, tangible rewards buried deep in the strata of the mountain. The culture of Keno Hill persists as a quiet endurance, defined by those who choose to reside where the silence is absolute and the winters are long enough to turn the blood slow. There is a particular beauty in the way the frost clings to the old wooden structures, crystallizing into delicate, geometric patterns that vanish the moment the sun crests the ridge. While no single name towers over the history of the site in the way a famous politician or athlete might, the collective spirit of the place belongs to the prospectors and the hardy few who maintain a presence in the shadow of the summit. Traditions here are rarely spoken aloud, manifesting instead in the way residents prepare for the freeze, a silent, shared understanding of what it means to live in the high, lonely reaches of the north.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data for Keno Hill is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
