Did You Know?

The Least Polluted City in the World

Whitehorse has held a Guinness record for the least air-polluted city in the world, a function of having almost nothing upwind of it for a very long way. The Yukon has roughly 45,000 people in an area larger than Sweden.

The clock: Yukon stopped changing its clocks in 2020 and stays on UTC−7 year-round — so it matches Vancouver in summer and Calgary in winter.

Whitehorse lies at 135.1°W. Its time zone, UTC−7, is built around the 105°W meridian. The 30.1° gap between them means the clock runs roughly 120 minutes ahead of the sun: solar noon arrives at about 14:00 rather than 12:00. The zone holds UTC−7 all year — there is no daylight saving here.

The longest day of 2026 is 22 June, with 19h 10m of daylight. The shortest is 22 December, with 5h 38m. The swing between them is 13h 32m. Close to the Arctic or Antarctic circle, the year swings hard between long light and long dark.

The earliest sunrise and the latest sunset do not land on the longest day. In Whitehorse the sun comes up earliest on 20 June at 04:27, while the latest sunset waits until 24 June at 23:37. The equation of time is what separates them: the Earth's elliptical orbit and axial tilt move solar noon back and forth by several minutes over the year.

The sky stays usably light for a while after the sun goes down. In Whitehorse that civil twilight runs about 42 minutes at the equinox, stretching to 60 minutes at the solstice.

Every figure in this section is computed from the city's own latitude, longitude and IANA time zone using NOAA solar algorithms (Spencer, 1971), accurate to about ±2 arcminutes below 65° latitude.
