Three details from the poem that serve as evidence that it is set during the Klondike Gold Rush in Canada are:
- "the land of gold"
- "we were mushing our way over the Dawson trail"
- "Till I came to the marge of Lake Lebarge"
- The poem "The Cremation of Sam McGee" does not mention the Klondike Gold Rush in Canada directly.
- However, there are may moments in the poem where the speaker reveals details that show the poem is set during the Gold Rush.
- The speaker talks of a "land of gold" to refer to the Yukon region in Canada, where gold was discovered in 1896.
- He mentions the Dawson trail and Lake Lebarge, which are both in Canada. The lake, more specifically, is located in the Yukon region.
