This gouge out of the mountain dominates Dawson.

If you don’t raise your foundation on blocks, then this happens over time.

Sternwheelers were the main transportation mode for most of a century. This is for tourists now

Dirt streets. And a zany collection of period buildings and modern buildings built in period style.

A dream realized. We roadtreked to the Yukon. Visited many historical sites like Dawson City, Mayo, Keno Hill, and the spectacular country between these far flung places. The photos here are of Dawson, home of the Klondike Gold Rush. A suitable town at the end of the road. At least, the Klondike Highway. If you are up for it, and your vehicle is up for it, there is the Dempster Highway which now extends north to the Beaufort Sea at Tuktoyaktuk.  We didn’t go. So our vehicle can’t boast a muddy coating of Tuk Muk. Even so, we found lively scenes in Dawson and Whitehorse. Yukon is energizing.
