Every Friday before the last Sunday of February is time for a Winter celebration in the coldest territory in Canada. While not a Statutory Holiday, government offices, schools, and some businesses close for Yukon Heritage Day. A celebration of the Klondike Gold Rush and everything that is the Yukon.
My ASL Dictionary cartoon of a woman in a large snow-covered parka illustrates the hand signs for YUKON.
The Y hand with the tip of the thumb on the forehead arcs from the temple to the chin in a C motion over the head, like the fur trim of a hood.
Fingerspell YUKON
The Y hand shakes in front of the chest.
