Variants

Russian Solitaire is a solitaire card game that is very similar in layout and play to Yukon. Its difference from Yukon is that building is by suit. The game should not be confused with Nidgi Novgorod, first recorded in the 1903 American Hoyle and also sometimes called Russian Solitaire, which is a simple, one-pack, non-builder, nor with Russian Patience, first described in 1876, which is a two-pack, open packer similar to Capricieuse. Other Yukon variants remove the usual restriction that only Kings be placed in empty tableau spaces. Also closely related to Yukon are Alaska and Australian Patience.
