We had a fabulous day in Skagway today. This town was built to supply the miners with goods who were headed for the Klondike Goldfields over the White Pass. It is one of only a few towns that have their original boardwalks and buildings; most other small towns have had at least one fire that destroyed everything. In the afternoon we went over the White Pass to the Yukon Suspension Bridge; located high above the Tutshi River (TOO-shy), what a rush. That evening we went to Liarsville for an open grill Salmon Bake and Miner’s Camp (I wish they catered the lower 48!).
The tour directors are moving north today to explore the Yukon Territory further. We boarded the White Pass & Yukon Route Railroad in Skagway and took the train to Fraser, B.C. From there we boarded our motor coach and headed to White Horse, Yukon Territory. The views are incredible, I adore Canada. We took a field trip to the #1 Micro Brewery in the Yukon where Yukon Gold is made to learn about the process and logistics for tours…and a little tasting. Tomorrow we head to Dawson City.
