Buck Dickson was born in the Kluane Lake area, eldest son to Thomas and Louise George Dickson.((“How it all started… over 100 years ago.” Dickson Outfitters, 2019 website: http://www.dicksonoutfitters.net/how-it-all-started-over-100-years-ago-0))  Buck married Lily, a daughter of Edith and Patsy Henderson. ((Rab Wilkie, //Skookum Jim: Native and Non-Native Stories and Views About His Life and Times and the Klondike Gold Rush.// Whitehorse: Skookum Jim Friendship Centre, 1992: 152.)) He bought his father’s hunting territory in the early 1940s. Buck was a skilled hunter and fisher and was especially well-known as a successful trapper.((“How it all started… over 100 years ago.” Dickson Outfitters, 2019 website: http://www.dicksonoutfitters.net/how-it-all-started-over-100-years-ago-0)) When the Yukon government started registering outfitting areas, Buck’s area became concession #10.((“Dickson Outfitters.” 2019 website: https://www.flickr.com/people/dickson_outfitters_ltd/)) Buck and brother Richard started a mink farm after the Alaska Highway was built.((Yukon Archives, 92/14, Alaska Highway Interpretive Panel Project.

In 1958, Dickson was involved in the recovery of a three-ton slab of copper from the White River area. He and Carl Chambers, federal game warden Joe Langevin, and cat-skinner Dave Hume, dragged the rock out of the bush and loaded it onto a flat-bed truck. The rock now sits at the south-west corner of the MacBride Museum property in Whitehorse and is dedicated to Yukon pioneer prospectors including Clem Emminger who originally located the slab in 1953.((Les McLaughlin, “The Copper Slab.” Hougen group of companies, 2019 website: http://hougengroup.com/yukon-history/yukon-nuggets/the-copper-slab/))\\
