"The Boy Scouts on the Yukon" by Ralph Victor is a work of adventure fiction written in the early 20th century. The narrative follows a group of Boys Scouts as they embark on an expedition to the Yukon Territory under the leadership of Colonel Snow and the guidance of an experienced Alaskan miner nicknamed Swiftwater Jim. The story highlights themes of teamwork, bravery, and exploration while incorporating elements of outdoor adventure and the spirit of the Boy Scout movement. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for the boys’ adventure, starting with their journey aboard the steamer "Queen" through the stunning scenery of the Inside Passage to Alaska.
