Discharging into the Bering Sea, this river has an estimated length of 1,980 miles (3,190 km). What is the name of this river that flows through Alaska and Canada?

The main headwaters of the Yukon river flow from Atlin Lake and Tagish Lake through the Yukon territory of Canada and central Alaska out to the Bering Sea. Due to natural obstacles such as rapids and narrow canyons, the river proved difficult for travel during the gold rush era, and precipitated the need for the railroad from Skagway, Alaska, to Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory.
