About York

York is a ghost town in Alaska's Nome Census Area, established as a mining settlement during the late 1800s and early 1900s before eventually being abandoned.

Little documented detail survives about the site's specific history or what physical remains exist today. Visitors to remote Alaskan ghost towns of this era generally encounter harsh subarctic conditions, extremely limited infrastructure, and no services of any kind. Access to a location at these coordinates in western Alaska is a serious logistical undertaking, likely requiring small aircraft or other specialized transport.
