Maxine has gotten ahead of me. On the way to Haines, we passed through more of the Yukon to Carcross, then down to the coast at Skagway. I had hoped to meet the train at the top of its trip, but that did not work out. We did see the White Pass and Yukon Route (WP&YR) narrow-gauge train across a deep gorge, but only ran into a bus-load of tourists.
The lake in Carcross is the best feature.
Not sure where this was, but as far as I could tell, they were more concerned about their toilet than the floor.
Sunrise in Carcross at 4:45 when I was not sleeping.
On the way to Skagway, the hiway climbs high in the mountains and this terrain.
Over the top, a view down into a deep canyon.
Bus full of tourists stopped to see the waterfall.
Beautiful falls, but with all the cameras on that side.
Nobody else noticed the train going by across a gorge on the other side.
I like trains.
The RV park in Skagway was along the tracks.
A garden at a restaurant that did not serve dinner. Only lunch for cruise ship passengers.
Streets of Skagway where the wooden sidewalks roll up as soon as the cruise ships blow their whistles.
Interesting collection in a window.
The only Land Cruiser I saw in Canada, and this one is from Germany.
Four ships in port this day.
Lined up like cattle, boarding their cruise.
The ferry Matanuska fueling up to take us to Haines.
One thought on “Watson Lake to Skagway”
Better sign for the toilet; if it doesn’t come out of your body, don’t put it in the potty.
