Downtown Skagway is a US National Park with dozens of Klondike Gold Rush-era historic buildings and exhibits. from there, we proceed up over the White Pass on the spectacular South Klondike Highway. En route to Emerald Lake, we make many stops for photos, search for wildlife, spot Mountain Goats, waterfalls, enormous lakes like Tutshi, Tagish and Bennett. Guide know the road very well, he's been doing tours here since 1992, longer than anyone else. The tour is totally customizable and flexible. Weather permitting, I have a couple of short hikes and secret spots where no one else goes. This tour can also stop at a Husky Camp where you will meet veterans of the famous 1000-mile Iditarod sled dog race. Another optional stop is at the Yukon Suspension Bridge, which spans the Class 5 Tutshi River.

Guests can cuddle with puppies, visit the petting zoo, and also two excellent museums. Guide will take guests to this Husky Camp because he appreciate the care given to the dogs. They want to RUN, it's literally in their blood. These dogs are capable of running 100 miles per day, for 10 days, and they sometimes run another race one week later. They are AMAZING athletes. Admission is $15 CAD (about $10 USD). If you would like to take a ride with the racing Huskies, they will be ready to pull you around a course through the woods, and learn all about racing, the dogs, race strategy and a lot more. Price for a cart ride (no snow in summer) is only $50 CAD, about $32 USD. With the exchange rate hovering around 30%, visiting and shopping in Canada is very reasonable these days.

About Skagway

Skagway is a former Klondike gold rush town at the head of Alaska's Lynn Canal, with wooden boardwalks, a mountain railway and the Chilkoot Trail.

Skagway lies at the northern end of the Inside Passage, in a narrow valley of steep mountains at the head of Lynn Canal. In 1897 and 1898 it was the main entry point for tens of thousands of gold seekers heading to the Klondike, who struggled over the mountains to the goldfields of the Yukon. Its historic main street, preserved as part of Klondike Gold Rush National Historical Park, keeps its wooden false-front buildings and boardwalks.
