June 21 Skagway

This morning we began our day in Skagway. This is a quaint little town on the inside passage. Our main event of the day was boarding the White Pass rail and heading to the top of a mountain that actually took us into Canada. The train followed the route that the miners traveled during the Gold Rush. The terrain was rugged and steep. It is hard to imagine climbing this mountain with 1,000 lbs. of supplies and a donkey. After the ride we did some shopping and then headed to the ship for one of the formal dinners. Tomorrow Ketchikan!
