Visited Skagway,

the port where the Gold Rushers landed and took off on their journey up White Pass (also known as Deadhorse Pass), where the prospective gold miners had to haul 2000 lbs of supplies up a 33 mile long, steep trail, and then transport that over 500 miles through the Yukon, only to find out the amount of gold was WAY exagerated, with all the good claims gone, as winter set in. Saw 'Liarsville', where they had lots of memorabilia, displays and some funny shows with some real 'characters' at the base of White Pass. Also had a 'salmon feast', which the advertisements showed as beautiful, bright orange filets. BUT, the fish they served was kinda gray looking, obviously chum or 'dog' salmon. VERY disappointing, but the beans, salad and cornbread were good....
