Times on the 15th of each month, 2026, Whitehorse local time.
Around 82 to 141 minutes each evening. It's shortest in March and September, about 82 minutes, and longest in June, about 141 minutes. In December the sun stays low all day, so the gold merges into one long window or doesn't come at all. The farther from the equator, the longer it lasts, because the sun crosses the horizon at a shallower angle.
Toward the southwest in December, around 218°, swinging to the north-northwest in June, around 327°. Today it sets at 246°, well south of due west.
Evening golden hour, in each city's own local time.
