Skagway was a quaint little town -- accessible by road from Canada to the north, about 2 hours to the Trans Canada highway.









The pipeline is for electricity -- there are lots of waterfalls for power in these mountains. Click on the plaque to enlarge it for reading.












We took a 3 hour bus tour along the roadway into Canada, which runs along the Klondike Trail (Trail of 98), used during the goldrush. The is the highway bridge built over a fault line -- the fourth bridge; hopefully they got it right this time.
