To Canada and back

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
The ride we took to the summit was breathtaking. We got lots of family shots minus P & A but unfortunately none of them were made with my camera because I bumped it on something the first day of the cruise and it is now being held together with a ponytail holder that P had with her. It still makes good pictures if you know how to hold it. None of us have proof that we were ever in Canada because we did not go far enough to reach the Canadian Post and the US point of entry just let us through because we were on a bus.
We learned lots of info from our driver. I cannot imagine why the people went to the Yukon during the Klondike Gold Rush. They had to carry 2000 pounds of supplies with them or they were turned back. It was certainly not an easy trip. When they reached the Yukon, the gold was all gone.
