  • Performer(s) Appeared in Yukon Cornelius is the tetartagonist from the 1964 Rankin/Bass television special Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. He is an arctic prospector who meets Rudolph and Hermey while they are trying to avoid the Abominable Snowmonster. Seemingly searching for valuable minerals at the North Pole, his greedy behavior inspires the song "Silver and Gold", sung by Sam the Snowman. (Originally, Yukon was going to sing it himself before it was decided that the special should have a narrator.) He accompanies the pair in their travels to the Island of Misfit Toys and back on a piece of floating ice. He is a blustery but benign character and ends up helping not only Rudolph and Hermey, but later the Abominable Snowmonster, or "Bumble" as he refers to him, as well, though only after he tried fighting the now toothless Bumble and caused the Bumble, along with himself and his sled dogs, to tumble over a cliff, but survive thanks to the Bumble being able to bounce, which Yukon knew about. Throughout the special, Yukon is shown tossing his pick axe into the air, sniffing, and then licking the end that contacts the snow or ice, most of the time saying afterwards in disappointment, "Nothing." This leads the audience to believe that he is searching for either silver or gold, though it turns out that he is actually seeking peppermint, as revealed at the end of the original version of the special. The removal of the scene (for subsequent telecasts) in which he discovers a "peppermint mine" near Santa's workshop by that method left audiences assuming that he was attempting to find either silver or gold by taste alone. The scene was reinstated in the special in 1998 and has appeared in most of its video releases since then, but currently remains cut from the televised broadcasts. Yukon oddly didn't reappear in Rudolph's Shiny New Year or Rudolph and Frosty's Christmas in July, but he did return for Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer and the Island of Misfit Toys.

Yukon first appears mushing his dogs and runs into Rudolph and Hermey the elf, who are being chased by the Abominable Snow Monster. He is big with a red beard, a red snowcap and blue winter gear. He carries around a pickaxe and every time his pickaxe hits the ground, he licks it to taste gold but no luck each time. Though greedy and lustful for gold, he is still good-hearted and quickly befriends the two misfits and becomes sort of their protector. His mushing dogs are everything but sled dogs as some consist of poodles, collies and other small dogs. After defeating the bumble, Yukon makes him tag along and bumble becomes his bumbling sidekick. In the special, Rudolph and Hermey are running from the bumble as they are trapped between the monster and the water. Yukon appears out of nowhere and has him and the others jump onto the ice. With his pickaxe, he breaks off the ice and they float away. Bumble tries to go after them but could not swim and roars with a vengeance. Yukon welcomes his new friends and decided to have them accompany him on his search for gold or silver, whatever he prefers at the moment. They reach the island of Misfit Toys and their king offers them a room for the night but only if they return to Santa's workshop to tell Santa to pick up the toys on Christmas Eve. Yukon and Hermey agree to do so but Rudolph was afraid they would be in danger if they return and so he goes back alone. When he does, he and his family get captured by the Bumble. Yukon and Hermey returned to Christmastown to find and rescue their friend and they found the Bumble's cave. Yukon thinks of a plan to lure out Bumble: Hermey makes quacking sounds which brings Bumble out and on top of the doorway, Yukon causes a mini avalanche which knocks down Bumble and then a giant boulder which knocks him unconscious. Hermey then takes his pliers and takes out all of Bumble's teeth. When Bumble awoke, he found his teeth gone and became frightened as Yukon no longer saw him as a threat and started charging at him. Yukon and the dogs jump on Bumble and they all fall off a cliff to their supposed death. Rudolph and Hermey could no see the bottom and feared the worst and returned to Santa's workshop heartbroken. Before Santa left with Rudolph and the toys, Yukon came back alive and unharmed and with Bumble. He made Bumble good and Yukon helped the elves decorate the workshop and load the sleigh.
