Skagway

Much of Skagway is within the Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park and many of the buildings and old shop fronts have been restored so the town looks similar to the boomtown it was in the late 1890s.

We took a historic three-hour tour to the top of the mountain pass and back to Skagway.  The trip up the mountain was in a motorcoach and we returned bt train.  At the top we saw the White Pass at 2,885 feet which is also the international boundary between U.S. and Canada.  Seated in a parlor car, we rode down the most spectacular part of the trip viewing scenery such as Glacier Gorge, Dead Horse Gulch, and Bridal Veil Falls.
