Here are a few pictures from our Chilkoot Trail hike and float. The historic Chilkoot Trail runs 33 miles from near Skagway to Bennett, British Columbia and was one of the major routes used by thousands of eager gold rush hopefuls to reach the Yukon. Our group hiked the first 2 miles and then took the Taiya river route back to close to where we started.



on any cruise excursion hike you spend more time learning about the moss, lichen etc. than actually hiking



side tributary over which the gold rush guys would have to find some way to transport their required ton of provisions








our cute guide was full of knowledge and enthusiasm
