Stampeeders Final Destination

We left Skagway, heading to Dawson City. This was the final destination of all the stampeeders and their ton of gear. The sidewalks are still boards and the streets are not paved.

We stayed 2 days and took a National Park Service walking tour. We rode the ferry across the Klondike river, the only way to cross since the road dead ends in Dawson.


Once across the river, the road is called Top of the World Highway and was gravel for about 78 miles to the US border.



Once we had to stop for a moose in the middle of the road but the scenery was extravagant.



At the border, the road became the Taylor Highway. This road was rough, narrow and dusty. This part of the trip was a 1 time adventure. We are glad we did it but won't do it again.



More as soon as we get more wifi.
